4.0 out of 5 stars The book was so good, we did the walk!, 26 April 2004

By	Russell Cradduck (Nantwich, Cheshire) - See all my reviews

Great value for money. You not only get a quite stunning collection ofphotographs coupled with detailed descriptions of the walk, you also gethalf-day summaries of the walk, all of which encouraged the brothersCradduck to attempt (and complete) the walk in May 2003. It was such anenjoyable trip that we are returning in May 2004 to walk the island fromnorth to south.
The book beautifully captures the landscapes of Skye through all fourseasons and also gives you some background to the island's history. Agreat read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good description of the island and amazing photography, 28 Jan 2009

By	C. Shaw (West Yorks, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: A Long Walk on the Isle of Skye: The Famous 75-mile Island Trek (Paperback)

The first thing that strikes you about 'The Long walk' is the quality of the photographs of the island, reproduced on heavy quality glossy paper throughout the book. From coastal beach scenes, to wide sweeping mountain-scapes, the photos are amazing and capture the beauty of place.
The photos fill most of the pages cover to cover, and they are clearly intended to inspire you, which they do. You will probably need some inspiration to encourage you to complete the 75 mile pilgrimage across the island as described, which the author describes in detail as he walks it over the course 8 days. The book gives a little advice on breaking the walk down into smaller sections, though this is a large enough undertaking for those unfamiliar with long distance paths. The author is no stranger to long distance routes, and inspiring books about them. He spent nearly two years planning, walking and re-walking the route and island generally, and his efforts have clearly paid off, the photography shows the beauty of the island in all seasons. I would have probably have liked more maps and route guidance than is included and just the overview map, though the ordnance survey maps required are listed. Suffice it to say I have not yet walked the route, though I hope to one day.
