He’s been writing guidebooks for almost a quarter of a cen- tury and is also the author of Kilimanjaro, Hadrian’s Wall Path, Dales Way and all three books in the South-West Coast Path series. Usually accompanied by his (most- ly) faithful dog, Daisy, he’s also updated Offa’s Dyke, Pembrokeshire Coast Path, North Downs Way, South Downs Way and The Ridgeway. This eighth edition was updated by DANIEL MCCROHAN. He’s a widely-published travel writer who has authored more than 30 guidebooks for both Trailblazer and Lonely Planet. He specialises in China, where he lived for more than a decade, but always relishes the chance to go hiking in his English homeland and has now worked on half a dozen of Trailblazer’s British Walking Guides. For this trip he was joined, as always, by his favourite travel buddy, his seven-year-old daughter Yoyo, who once again defied her tender age by walking with Dad right across the Lake District before leaving him to tackle Yorkshire on his own.
