First-ever revised edition of Wainwright's selection of 56 Lakeland 'foothills' not included in his main Pictorial Guides, all but one (Humphrey Head) within the boundaries of the National Park. Vintage Wainwright, full of eloquence and humour, brilliantly updated by Chris Jesty.
Wainwright's dry humour shines through - as well as his frustration at his own increasing limitations at the time - and his opening diagrams made me laugh out loud. - Cumbria Life
AW's originals and Chris Jesty's revisions will always have a place on my shelves as the definitive guides - to consult pre- and post-walk, and of course far, far too precious to take out of the fells. - Cumbria
For days when the weather puts the higher fells out of bounds or when you want a shorter half-day or evening walk, this guide provides a range of excellent options. In view of the large amendments in this revised edition needed to reflect changes that have taken place to routes in the past 38 years. I consider this to be a very useful acquisition for walkers. - Footsteps
