.Nicholson Guide to the Waterways: North West & the Pennines No. 5 (Waterways Guide)
City Travel Guides > Books > United Kingdom
from: OS-Nicholson

March 06, 2006
The best guide to the NW waterways ever. OK so the T&M isn't there in full, but then it's not exclusively a NW waterway or in the Pennines. The sheer wealth of detail both of maps and of navigational help, as well as that pertaining to local amenities is outstanding. One of the best things Nicholsons did was to introduce the spiral binding to a formerly thick and unwieldy book. This volume will lie flat on the boat roof, sit nicely in your pocket. I use it a lot - and I'm a walker!!

City Travel Guides > Books > United Kingdom
by: Ordnance Survey

This is an essential map for anyone who wants to walk the wall. The 1:25000 is vital to give you the necessary degree of detail in this often barren landscape. Any larger will be no use whatsoever in this kind of terrain. Do not be without this on your trip.

.Dublin (Lonely Planet City Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > United Kingdom
from: Lonely Planet Publications

We found the LP guide to Dublin to be as accurate and informative as all the others we've used.

Information is presented in a very easy to follow format. Recommendations are to be relied upon. We tried a Lebanese restaurant in the book and had a truly delicious meal. We booked a lodge on LP recommendation and it was exactly as described in the book. We did a walking tour in the book and it was brilliant.

I don't think I could actually do a sightseeing holiday now without LP as a companion. I'd feel lost without one.

.The Northumberland Coast
City Travel Guides > Books > United Kingdom
by: Joe Cornish

Those familiar with his work won't be in for any surprises here.
It's good stuff but, maybe because the subject matter isn't always as dramatic, not as inspiring as Scotland's Coast: A Photographer's Journey or his first book First Light: A Landscape Photographer's Art.
In summary - very good but if you don't have the others, get them first.

."Time Out" Cheap Eats in London (Time Out Cheap Eats in London)

Haha, it really is incredible - I never thought I'd find some of the best places to eat for less than a fortune in such a small book like that, but apparently I did. It is ridiculously easy to find the kind of place you want to eat (cheapest, closest to you, a certain cuisine etc), and the reviews consist of opening/closing hours, special menus, the highlights of the place, and critique on the food, service and location. It's incredible how accurate they are :) Definitely worth the buy.

.Hadrian's Wall Path (National Trail Guides) (National Trail Guides)

There are other books on walking Hadrian's Wall, but for me this is easily the best in just about every area. Whilst I'll always be open to new publications, in 2008 this is the only guide you will need to walk the wall safely, and that will give you you accurate and precise historical information on the way.

It ticks all the boxes. From a practical view it is compact and won't fall apart at the sight of the first shower - of which you may encounter several. You can use it to walk the wall in sections or in one hit. It describes the route very accurately, and allows enough space for a good depth of historical information. Hard to beat.
