In this book you'll find 64 routes that, if you complete them all, by default you will also have completed the Lakeland fells known as the Wainwrights, ie all the fells featured in Alfred Wainwright's classic series of seven hand-drawn masterpieces.
This book is not intended to replace Wainwright's superb pictorial guides. However, many walkers struggle to devise full-day walks using the Wainwright guide books. Yes, he has detailed pretty much every conceivable way of getting to each individual summit, but this leaves the reader having to then come up with their own plan to make a longer day of it by continuing over one or more other fells. Wainwright didn't describe day walks in these seven guidebooks. He described individual ways up and down each one. So, do buy the Wainwright guidebooks if you haven't got them on your bookshelves already, and use them alongside this book.
Full colour maps and photos throughout.
