WATERSIDE WALKS IN THE LAKE DISTRICT
has been in print since 1992 and is one of the best-selling guides
to walking guides to the Lakes. Each of the 28 walks is

routes range from short, 1 mile strolls to picturesque waterfalls,

has been completely revised and updated and is now produced by
Sigma Press.

ROCKY RAMBLER'S WILD WALKS, by Iain
Peters and Colin Shelbourn, is the first Lake District walking
guide to put the children in charge. Ten graded routes encourage
the children in the family to lead the walk, helped along by Sid
Squirrel, Harriet Herdwick and a variety of colourful cartoon
characters (not forgetting Rocky and Rachel Rambler). Each walk
is presented as a board game, with the route threading its way
across a cartoon version of the landscape. Hints, tips, puzzles
and games keep the kids engaged.
The books has now sold over 16,000
copies and is published by Cicerone.

TAKE A HIKE is a collection
of cartoons from the great outdoors (the landscape, not
the magazine).
If you know anyone
who spends more time looking at their GPS than the view,
who can't move without a trekking pole or who can bore
for England on the subject of breathable waterproofs,
this is the book you need.
TAKE A HIKE was originally
published by Cicerone and signed copies are now available
direct from me. Get
in touch to find out how.

Finally, two books currently out of print.
Great Walks sold over 120,000 copies and went into two paperback editions.
Stirling Moss's Great Drives sold over 20,000 copies in hardback & paperback.
The licences have reverted to me to so if you are a publisher
and would like to find out more about either title, get
in touch.
