A.Wainwright's legendary "Pictorial Guides to the Lakeland Fells" have been best-sellers for the past fifty years. Now, for the first time, a thorough programme of revision and updating, authorised by the Wainwright Estate, has begun. Each volume of the "Pictorial Guides" will be reissued with maps and text revised to take account of the many changes to footpaths and terrain since Wainwright himself walked the fells. Key features include: all maps and ascent diagrams are checked and updated, paths and route indicators are picked out in red for greater clarity, instructions on ascents and ridge routes are revised and updated, and drawings and page layouts remain faithful, wherever possible, to Wainwright's originals.
