First Sentence
John Jordan - known as Jack - was one of the fourteen men and women who answered the clarion call from G.H.B. Ward, a twenty-two-year-old engineering fitter from Sheffield, to join him on a ramble around Kinder Scout on Sunday 2 September 1900 - the day which was to see the formation of the legendary Sheffield Clarion Ramblers' Club. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent introduction to walks in the Peak District, 17 Feb 2004
This review is from: Peak District (Collins Rambler's Guides) (Paperback)
I have completed many of the walks in this guide and have enjoyed them all. Directions and maps are clear and as such most of the walks are easy to follow. Each walk is given a difficulty guide and approximate time and I have found these to be realsitic. Information about wildlife, refreshmnents and points of interest mean that you can make the most of your walk and can plan what to take. A well written and informative guide. One of the best I've used.

5.0 out of 5 stars Review of The Peak District: Landscapes through Time, 21 May 2005
By S. Crane "Kiwi Guy" (New Zealand) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Peak District: Landscapes Through Time (Landscapes of Britain) (Paperback)
The "Landscapes Through time" book is a really good one covering the whole prehistory and History of the Peak District.The Amazon synopsis is a fair one.I dont need to say a lot more. There are plenty of walking opportunities in the park to visit some of the historic sites.I have done so. Read also the books by Ali Cooper, Paul Morgan and Mark Edmonds.There are not too many books that focus on the history of just The Peak District and this one is a goody.
Go read and then explore.

2.0 out of 5 stars Frustrating - could be easily improved with maps and index, 21 Jul 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Peak District (Collins Rambler's Guides) (Paperback)
This book is very frustrating to use - needs a full map of the Peak District so that you can pinpoint where the walks are in relation to the whole area, and also would benefit from an index at the end so that you can search for specific villages you would like to walk through. Easily remedied by the publisher and would make this much easier to use. I rarely use this book any more.
