1.Walking in Ireland (Lonely Planet Walking Guides) by: Sandra Bardwell, Helen Fairbairn, Gareth McCormack May 01, 2003
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £14.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £10.49 You Save: £4.50 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £8.63
This book is terrible, the directions are vague in the extreme with no distances or times mentioned between landmarks so when it says 'take right fork' you had better hope there is only 1... On the walk we tried there wasnt! Nice information about the flora and fauna which is great but not at the expense on directional detail. I wonder if the authors of this book actually did the walk as some of the directions are also contradictory. In the end it turned an attempt at a walk into a massively frustrating random tramp including much backtracking and restarting before giving up and going home! This book did manage to find itself one place... THE BIN!

I read this short and useful book when our party of four had already decided to walk round Mont Blanc, and I re-read it after a hugely enjoyable tour. What caught my eye at first was author Gareth McCormack's outstanding illustrations. Post-walk, I was equally impressed by the sound advice in the Planning & Preparation section. Yes, I thought, how right he is to tell people what they will be taking on! McCormack doesn't labour his prose. Read him slowly, carefully noting such points as: - assess your fitness objectively before you leave; - start early each day for the best weather; - check which cable cars are running. Once you've mentally applied such wisdom to the context of the UK mainland, you'll realise that you ... Read More:

6.Walking in France (Lonely Planet Walking Guides) by: Sandra Bardwell, Gareth McCormack, Miles Roddis April 01, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
Walking in France is a joy. The French network of sentiers and randonees are very impressive. Of course, if the French are going to go walking, they will want good instructions and it is certainly difficult to get lost in the main walking areas, although it is very easy to go a whole day without meeting another soul! I tried several walks in the Auvergne and one in the Burgandy region. Great walks all. Lots of useful information. Walking is a great way to discover France and this guide should be the inspiration you will need!
