Amazon.co.uk Review
Rambling is the number one outdoor activity in Britain, with more fans even than football, claims the chairman of the Outdoor Writers' Guild in the introduction to the
AA Book of Britain's Walks. And this isn't surprising when you consider Britain's scenery. Within one day you can walk "from airy coastal cliffs, sand dunes, through lovely riverside meadows and woods to towering crag-bound lakes and mountains". With such majestic surroundings at our fingertips, it may seem odd to stay in and read a book. But this isn't that sort of book. While its colour photographs of patchwork fields, crumbling castles and wind-whipped trees inspire you to get up out of that armchair, illustrated maps point the way. And you needn't worry that this hefty hardback is too big to carry: each of the 120 maps is reproduced in a rucksack-friendly pocket book.
Each themed walk is accompanied by a coloured panel giving information about distance, terrain, gradients and where to park a vehicle, together with a grading system represented by symbols (three boots indicate mountainous or difficult terrain). Numbered instructions surround each map, offering cryptic tips such as: "At a panorama dial, bear right off the path for a steep short-cut to the summit", ensuring that even losing your way can be fun. --Daren King
