The first volume of the acclaimed Time Out Country Walks has been fully revised and updated, featuring 52 walks within easy reach of London, all starting and ending at railway stations. The walks take travelers through the glorious countryside, all on scenic footpaths with a minimum of road-walking. Recommendations for the best pubs and cafés are included, while easy-to-use maps and cut-off suggestions help those who choose to shorten the walk.

These 30 walks unveil nearly 100 miles of London's great variety of landscape - formal gardens and wild heathland; cobbled mews and narrow alleyways; elegant squares and arcades; royal palaces and country houses; docks, canals, lakes and rivers; bustling markets and tranquil villages. The text not only describes each route, but anticipates and explains puzzling features, both historical and contemporary, which the walker will encounter. Detailed maps indicate the precise location of historic sites, buildings and other landmarks, and opening times are given for places which are open to the public, together with information on all forms of public transport. There are also recommendations for suitable refreshment and sustenance breaks.

The second edition of CAMRA's pocket-sized walking guide to London is packed with fully updated routes, new pubs and pages of fresh content, including special tours around the city via public transport. Full-colour maps and easy-to-follow instructions make this a must-have for both walkers and non-walkers who love a good pub and a great pint. --Publisher.

A collection of guided tours throughout London Black History Walks invites the reader to see their surroundings with new eyes.

This second volume of country walks contains 30 completely new walks in deep and beautiful countryside. The walks go through woods, along streams and through parks, always avoiding tarmac roads wherever possible. Each of them starts and ends at a railway station about an hour's journey from London, though car parking details are also given for those preferring to drive. The walks range from seven to thirteen miles in length - with several options for shortening given - and are graded for toughness. There are also highlighted features on particular sites of historical interest which occur on individual walks. Building on the huge success of the original book, and created by the walking club which grew out of it, these walks are guaranteed to breathe life into the most jaded Londoner, and to provide the perfect way to both escape the hurly-burly of city life and discover some of England's finest countryside.
