I quite often see people asking about, or being referred to guide books for various parts of the world, or UK national trails.
Because I was in the shop last week I was reminded that probably the best place to go for any of this sort of stuff is Stanfords in London (Longacre). They do maps of just about everywhere that a map has been drawn for, and the choice of guide books is almost bewildering. For instance I took a look and they've got an almost complete collection of Wainwrights.
I've also bought stuff through their website (
www.stanfords .co uk), so if you live well away from London it doesn't matter, and the service was very good.
Just in case anyone's wondering, I have no interest, direct of indirect in the business. Just suggesting somewhere that people can go.
