Beautifully written, and quite inspirational. Every time I read some of this book I want to take a month off work and walk the Pennine Way. This book is a photo journal – a keepsake memory. It’s not like a modern travel book with tips of what to take and how to walk the route. The photos are a bit dated now (the styling and the colouring), but still an enjoyable read.

Review: This was bought as a gift for my niece and her partner who had walked part of the Pennine Way in the summer. They had maps, and could follow the route easily, but weren’t always sure of what they were actually looking at. This book doesn’t tell them what they were looking at, it actually shows them, so they can match the book to the photos they took while they were walking. This has increased the pleasure that they can take from looking back at the trip. They love the book!

Alfred Wainwright MBE (17 January 1907 – 20 January 1991), who preferred to be known as A. Wainwright or A.W., was a British fellwalker, guidebook author and illustrator. His seven-volume Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells, published between 1955 and 1966 and consisting entirely of reproductions of his manuscript, has become the standard reference work to 214 of the fells of the English Lake District. Among his 40-odd other books is the first guide to the Coast to Coast Walk, a 182-mile (293-kilometer) long-distance footpath devised by Wainwright which remains popular today.
