Walking is one of Britain's favorite leisure activities, and this guide features a variety of mapped walks to suit all abilities. The book features all the practical detail you need, accompanied by fascinating background reading on the history and wildlife of Berkshire and Buckingham shire, as well as other local points of interest. All walks are annotated with places to visit along the way, including tea rooms and pubs, with extra details on their character and the food on offer. Every walk is given a summary of distance, time, gradient, level of difficulty, type of surface and access, landscape, dog friendliness, parking and public toilets.

Some volumes are great if you want to walk in Wales - problem hopefully solved now
3 Feb 2012
By JohnS
Format:Paperback
This series of walk books is generally very good, but as of today (3 Feb 2012) the above-mentioned major issue still applies even when bought direct from the AA themselves. Great set of walks for South Wales with a front cover of Berkshire + Bucks.
I feel it is very poor of the publisher to still be selling this book in this form some 6 months after this issue was first noted on Amazon reviews.
Footnote: I contacted the distributors of the book who were unaware of the problem they said. I was promptly sent the correct volume and told that stock would be checked for this error. Problem solved hopefully - uprated to 4*

I have experienced exactly the same issue with this book as Alan (I thought it could be a one off), please do not buy it unless strangely you want a book which cover describes incorrectly the contents and you would like 50 walks in south wales.
Need some quality control on this product.

Buyer beware. Who would have thought that after 2 negative reviews in which it was perfectly plain that there was a major publishing error for this particular book, that you could still purchase it from Amazon and it would still be wrong! Well it is true, Amazon don't read customer reviews, or else they would have contacted the publisher to point out the publisher's error. I decided to purchase the book as a result of looking at someone else's copy but....
To compound the error I emailed my displeasure to Amazon - but no response. So I had to phone and to ask if they ever read their reviews or answered their emails, which of course they said they did, but I know better. Very disappointing.
