Review:
Publisher's Information 2008
Cicerone's "Lakeland Fellranger" series is the modern rucksack reference for the discerning fell adventurer. Fellrangers are inspirational and thorough and together the eight books in the series provide a comprehensive and contemporary guide to the fells of the English Lake District. The guides in the "Fellranger" series are ideal for practical use outdoors, and are equally useful for armchair planning. Each fell has its own dedicated chapter, and the variety of routes on the fell are carefully depicted on Harvey maps and fellscape diagrams. The scenic qualities of the landscape are illustrated by colour photographs and by detailed summit panoramas that help to underpin the reader's appreciation of these magical mountains. The Southern Fells are defined to the north by the 'lost' Roman road that crossed Hardknott and Wrynose passes, and led from Eskdale into Little Langdale. The fells run south, on both sides of the beautiful Duddon. The famous Coniston Fells lie to the east and sweeping horizons to the west. The area begins impressively upon Harter Fell and ends remotely upon the coastal reaches near Black Combe.
