First Sentence
When William Wordsworth proposed that his reader place himself in imagination on a cloud midway between Great Gable and Scafell in order to see the valleys radiating like the spokes of a wheel from that vantage, he could equally have chosen Esk Hause, or possibly Bowfell, as the hub.

Format:Paperback
I searched high and low for an original copy of this book. It is the best book of high fells walks you can find. Bob Allen's descriptions are fantastic and as well as classic lakeland walks there are many alternatives for the more adventurous scrambler. I cannot reccomend this book highly enough.

This book came out when I was still at university in Leeds. It rapidly became my personal favourite of the Lake District guides.
It's a great combination of concise route description, with enough detail to find your way, but enough also left to the imagination. The route descriptions are both evocative and practical.
The pictures in the first edition were excellent by standards of the time. They certainly got me wanting to get out in the fells. They now look a bit dated, and modern standards are higher.
This book helped me and many others to get to know the Lake District better, and it is still a super guidebook. I'm basing my review on the first edition, and I'm glad to see it's been updated now. Thank you to Bob Allen for writing it.
The book continues to help walkers get to know the Lake District fells better.

This book broke away from the Wainwright stranglehold on walking books. Its mix of text and superb photos was a great combination it got me on the fells in the mid nineties.
