This is a delightful walking guide. I love the whole layout of the book, particularly Jack's gifted artwork.
From the ninety walks featured in his original three-book series of "Walks in the Yorkshire Dales" Jack Keighley has selected, revised and updated his fifty favourites.
All the walks are circular and range from 4.5 to 7.5 miles. They have been chosen to appeal to all tastes, and vary from simple valley strolls to strenuous fell expeditions. Hand-written and profusely illustrated in Jack's unique and highly distinctive style, each chapter contains:-

* a meticulously detailed map and concise route directions on the same page
* a general description of the terrain
* notes on features of interest
* parking information

This book strongly tempts me to take a closer look at walking in Yorkshire!
