Product Description

Review
'First-class guidebook for climbers and serious walkers... Anyone setting out for Scotland with mountains in view should take Mr Poucher's book in their pocket.' Glasgow Herald; 'An excellent guide... should be compulsory - as well as fascinating - reading for climbers, ramblers and fellwalkers, to be studied before, during and after every outing.' Cumberland Evening Star; 'The pictures are so excellent that the merest novice should safely achieve his peak with their aid in good weather.' Yorkshire Post --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Synopsis
Originally published in 1962 and now available in an edition revised by Nigel Shepherd, an illustrated handbook for walking and climbing in Wales, which also provides notes on the 12 essentials for taking good mountain photographs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent pocket book with many photos, 30 Mar 2008
By Queens Park Pete (Brighton UK) - See all my reviews
As well as a having very individual writing style, this book manages to combine the pocket size format needed to be taken on a walk with coffee table book quality illustrations- hundreds of them showing routes up every crag in N Wales! My only criticism would be the map reproduction (not a Welsh Wainwright)- but then you should be digging out a proper OS or Harvey map anyway.
Although a reprint of a book 40 years old, Poucher's fantastic text has been recently revised to allow for access changes.
Strongly recommended.
