• A literary book written for the armchair traveller by an established travel writer. • Passionately committed to conservation, deeply imbued with a sense of place and illustrated with spacious colour photographs of landscapes and views.• More than just an ordinary guide-book, it has an underlying campaigning motive: to draw attention to Britain’s unspoiled landscapes and encourage belief in the value of conservation.• Provides all the information you need to plan a journey, find accommodation or prepare for a long-distance walk.• Written by Tim Jepson, previously Rome-Italy correspondent for The Sunday Telegraph, commissioning editor for their travel section and now writing for National Geographic.
