What a gem of a book. I was looking at it on here several times over a two week period while making my selection on a guide for the Cotswolds. I choose it as it was called "The Definitive Guide" so figured it had to be fairly good.

What a shock when it arrived, as fairly good is a masterpiece of understatement!

The book is about the only one you will need as it features everything of interest in this region. We had planned for five days here, looks like we will need to extend that. Peter Titchmarsh has lovingly put together years of research in this 170 page volume leaving the reader with what I can only call "The Perfect Guide Book" Lots of photographs and jammed packed from cover to cover with information. Look around ... Read More:

The above book description is a fair comment. This is a classic "English walk" from Chipping Campden via Broadway, Winchcombe, Painswick, Stroud along 104 miles of winding ridge top trail to Bath. There are 26 hand-drawn 1:25,000 scale maps that show clearly every style, gate and fence along the route. They are accompanied by fine "Wainwright style" drawing of views and buildings along the way. And even one of his wife "Helen emerging from the Beacon Lane thicket" on Map 22. His description of the route is very detailed, but its nice just to follow the maps and refer to the text if you seem a bit lost.
If you want colour maps (at the same scale) and colour photographs I suggest you try "The Cotswold Way" OS Recreational Path Guide by Anthony ... Read More:

Discovery Illustrated is the story - primarily in pictures - of the Royal Research Ship 'Discovery' and the British National Antarctic Expedition in 1901-1904. 'Discovery' was built specifically for Antarctic journeying and captained by the young Commander Scott; this was the first major scientific exploration of the Antarctic continent. There are literally hundreds of photographs here, taking by several expedition members - mostly by Reginald Skelton, the Chief Engineer but also including Ernest Shackleton - and amazing paintings by Edward Wilson, alongside many drawings and other illustrations.

There is enough in the way of historical background and maps to follow the journey but the story is really told through the journal entries ... Read More:
