The Coast to Coast Walk

This lovely portfolio of photographs bound into a beautiful coffee-table book is one of the very best collections I have ever had to review. They are truly stunning!

This is a dangerous book. In one day it turned me, a complete walking novice, into someone with half a mind to set off right away in Albert Wainwright's footsteps.

With its photographic representation of the impact of the seasons The Coast to Coast Walk is ideal for walkers and photographers alike.

A beautifully photographed celebration of the magnificent landscapes on the walk.

If this doesn't get you out on the Coast to Coast with your camera, nothing will.

The images in this hardback are really quite special; a celebration of the landscape.

Walkers and photographers are different people. A photographer waits until the landscape is ready. The walker through sun or rain walks on, absorbing the landscape, a constantly moving, changing mixture of lights and sensations. When he has bathed his feet in Robin Hood's Bay, he will treasure a book like Karen's to remember where he has been.

Frenkel's photographs capture the stark changes that occur from season to season -  from frozen lakes to the explosive reds, oranges and yellows of autumn-each scene populated only by the occasional sheep or striding rambler…the captions of this book are peppered with personal recommendations for welcoming local guesthouses and choice picnic spots.
