In this unique Pictorial Guide, he writes of the glorious curves and simple grandeur of Great Langdale; of Wasdale, 'an emerald amongst sombre hills'; of enchanting Borrowdale; of the sparkling radiance of the Duddon; and of the most delectable valley of all – Eskdale, 'sanctuary of peace and solitude'.

Download or read book The Outlying Fells of Lakeland written by Alfred Wainwright and published by Frances Lincoln. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the legendary A. Wainwright's guide to his selection of 56 'foothills' in Lakeland, brilliantly revised and updated by Chris Jesty. The outings described here with typical eloquence and humour were chosen by Wainwright with a particular readership in mind: 'those walkers who, because of age or infirmity, must be content with milder expeditions on lesser fells.' This guide is packed with gems of outstanding beauty which you don't have to be super-fit to enjoy: Orrest Head, where Wainwright's love affair with the Lake District began; Scout Scar, 'a pleasure every step of the way'; Beacon Fell, 'the epitome of that appeals to fellwalkers'; and many, many others. All the walks fall within the boundaries of the National Park. In the second edition, the main routes are picked out in red for greater visibility, and parking information is given where possible.

Book Synopsis Outside Broadcaster by : Eric Robson
Download or read book Outside Broadcaster written by Eric Robson and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eric Robson is probably best known as the chairman of one of the longest running broadcast programmes in the world - Gardeners' Question Time on Radio 4. But for more than 35 years he's been one of the instantly recognisable voices of British broadcasting. He's been the commentator on the great events of State - Remembrance Sunday, Trooping the Colour. His documentaries range from Great Railway Journeys of the World to the classic BBC series with the fellwalker Alfred Wainwright. His long running ITV programme, Out of Town, is cult viewing in the north of England. In this blunt, humorous and indiscreet memoir Eric Robson bites the hand that feeds him in a canter through the stupidities of broadcasting which he still can't bring himself to think of as a proper job. When asked to describe what he does he's been known to say that he's the electronic equivalent of a jobbing plumber. Of course plumbers only need to know two things - water runs downhill and payday is Friday. Broadcasters only have to pretend they know what they're talking about.
Book Synopsis Wainwright Revealed by : Richard Else
Download or read book Wainwright Revealed written by Richard Else and published by . This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was the most unlikely of relationships. Britain's most distinguished guidebook writer, a man in his late seventies and a young, inexperienced documentary film-maker who was less than half his age. Yet Richard Else persuaded Alfred Wainwright out of the shadows and onto the nation's television screens. In doing so, the highly reclusive Wainwright became the most unlikely of celebrities and his films with Eric Robson were amongst the most popular programmes on the small screen. Wainwright Revealed is not simply the inside story of those films - films that, Richard argues, did more than anything else to spawn today's Wainwright `industry`. It also explores how, for the first and only time in his life, Wainwright agreed to work collaboratively with another person. Richard provides a new insight into AW's achievement, his place in the tradition of guidebook writing and into a life that was essentially solitary. Richly illustrated with over 70 photographs, the book explores the forces that motivated Wainwright - forces which AW almost certainly did not fully understand - and uncovers a more complex individual than previously thought. Richard Else is one of Europe's best known outdoor film makers with over 30 international awards to his name, including two from BAFTA Scotland. He has worked in terrain ranging from the arctic in winter to the desert in summer and many of his films have redefined how travel and adventure is portrayed in the media. He is currently Executive Producer of the award winning Adventure Show and has contributed to many books as a writer and photographer. He lives in the shadow of the Cairngorm mountains with fellow film-maker Margaret Wicks and is a keen walker, biker and ski-mountaineer.
