5.0 out of 5 stars The only Munro book yu'll ever need, 6 April 2005

By	John Williams (Llansadwrn, Wales/Cymru) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Munros - Scotland's Highest Mountains (Paperback)

In spite of making one or two slightly disparaging remarks about those of us who gang to the hielands purely for the purpose of bagging Munros, the author has put together what must surely be (for the price, at least) the ultimate Munro baggers Bible. This really is a bargain. Reduced from �10.00? The price on the dust flap reads �25.00, and that wouldn't be extortionate. But what exactly is it? It's not big and lavish enough to sit on your coffee table, but too big and lavish to stuff into your rucksack, so what do you do with it? I think this book will come into its own on those winter evenings that are too miserable to venture outside, but just right for planning your next foray or two into the hills. How such a mass of detail about all 284 Munros has been packed into such a modestly sized and modestly priced volume is nothing short of miraculous. This is a book for planning the broad strategy of your Munro campaign, not it's fine details. The small scale route maps are no substitute for large scale walking maps, though they are very clear and oriented the 'right' way, with North always towards the top of the page. (Walking books that don't follow this convention - and there are some - are so annoying!) Routes up each of the hills are described, sometimes with alternatives, with added information such as distances and estimated times of each walk, meanings and correct pronunciations of Scottish names, access points and OS maps covering the routes. There is also a list of all of the Munros with their heights and numbers, and a page each on access and mountain safety. There is inspiration as well as information in the descriptions and photographs of the mountains. The photographs are very bright and clear, though there is a preponderance of winter shots, which makes me wonder whether the author might have had his own reasons for not making the hills look too enticing to the average walker. The book is well bound, and looks as though it will stand a lot of use. If you want just one book on the Munros, one that will be useful as well as decorative, then you couldn't really go wrong with this one.

This book is unbelievable value. It is a glossy coffee-table combining beautiful photographs taken at all times of year with text and diagrams showing the recommended routes up all 284 munros. This book is essential to anyone who has ever walked in Scotland and will definitley tempt you to walk some more

5.0 out of 5 stars A well illustrated and useful guide to Scotland's mountains., 28 April 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Munros - Scotland's Highest Mountains (Hardcover)

Cameron McNeish has achieved a fine balance here. Not only does The Munros serve as an extremely useful guide for planning hill expeditions, McNeish also succeeds in capturing something of the unique nature of each particular mountain area in Scotland through his eloquent descriptions.

From a technical point of view, the walker will find the clear and well thought out route illustrations and instructions most helpful. But the book, with its many superb colour photographs and easily readable style, also has something for the armchair enthusiast and stands up well as a general guide to Scotland's high places. Highly recommended.

2.0 out of 5 stars Dull and Derivative
I've not given this one star because it does what it says. It tells you where all the Munros are. Otherwise it's a lazy and derivative coffee-table book. Read more
