4.0 out of 5 stars Essential reading for anyone planning to walk in the Alps, 5 Sep 2001
By A Customer
This is an extremely well written guide to the Alps. The first few pages contain valuable information, especially for people unused to mountain walking. The individual walks are very clearly described and contain useful local information. It has obviously written by walkers, who appreciate how necessary it is to have timings, distances and total climbs listed, therefore enabling you to judge the grade of the walk. However, we found the grading system used in the book and the suggested timings of the walks to be appropriate. The choice of walks in the areas we visited were a good selection, which highlighted the different scenery and walking possibilities in each region. Inevitably some great walks have also been omitted, but if you only did the ones suggested in the book, you would have gained a good impression of the area, and would have enjoyed some lovely hiking. We were sorry that the Chamonix valley was not discussed. While the author's comments about other books adequately covering this region were valid, it would have been nice to have had the author's distinctive and informative style cover the walks, in what is a major Alpine region of France. Our only slight criticism is the annoying habit of not printing the maps with North to the top of the page. Although, this was probably a printing restriction, it meant you had to be careful when reading the maps in the book. Overall this is an excellent book, which is truly useful in helping you to decide where to go, and which walks to do when you get there.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good but maybe a bit brief, 7 Aug 2009
I have not been through the whole book as yet. Maybe as it covers such a vast area is a bit brief in the walk description. But overall it gives a good overview and presentation of the area.
