This guidebook is the ideal companion for walkers who want to explore the western section of Derbyshire's White Peak area. Starting in towns and villages including Castleton, Ilam, Buxton, Tideswell, Hartington and Longnor, these day walks are perfectly suited for year-round trips to the Peak District and are suitable for walkers of all abilities. Across 40 day walks, this guidebook offers a range of routes that showcase the best of the Peak District landscape: rolling green hills rising up to limestone ridges, deep dales with meandering rivers, and limestone caves and pinnacles. There is plenty of history to explore too, with many walks visiting historical sites from Neolithic, medieval and industrial periods. Most of the walks range between 4 and 9 miles and can be enjoyed in 2-4 hours walking. As several start from the same car park or village, many walks can be combined for longer days out. Each walk features clear OS mapping and detailed route description interspersed with insights into the area's history, geology, art and culture, making this a brilliant guide for both navigation and learning about the Peak District.

The third volume in a highly praised pictorial series, Backtrack Byways, looking at Britain's branch lines and secondary routes on a regional basis. As with Atlantic's monthly magazine Backtrack, the photographic coverage extends from early times to the present day and includes some evocative historical colour images. The book is devised to appeal to visitors to the Peak District National Park as well as to railway enthusiasts. It includes the spectacular route through Monsal Dale, greatly detested by John Ruskin, as well as the weird and wonderful Cromford & High Peak line soaring to well over the 1,200ft contour. Other titles in the series include Railways of the Yorkshire Dales and Railways of the North York Moors.
