Historic Walks in Derbyshire, Elaine Burkinshaw - Numerous walking books have been written on the Peak District, Britain's first and most visited national park, which covers roughly half of the county of Derbyshire. Comparatively few guides, however, provide such comprehensive coverage of the whole of the county or of south Derbyshire in particular - a part of the county that adds an extra dimension in terms of scenery. This comprehensive guide to walking in Derbyshire describes in detail 60 walks set against the backdrop of the uniquely contrasting and outstandingly beautiful Derbyshire landscape, and covers an extensive range of themes. There is information on the remnants of ancient civilisations, fine market towns and villages, Derbyshire customs and traditions, caverns and mines, castles, grand country houses and parklands, craft centres, factory shops, gardens, Georgian and Victorian spa resorts, industrial heritage and transport history, adventure and theme parks for the young and much more, as well as all the necessary walk information. All of this lies in the Heart of England, with excellent accessibility from all parts of Britain and within an hour's drive for half the population of England. The routes are accompanied by OS mapping and illustrated with the author's own photographs.

Walks in the Ancient Peak District, Robert Harris - The Peak District boasts not only the most breathtaking scenery but also the most fascinating prehistoric sites and monuments left by our ancestors over thousands of years.
If you can imagine our Stone Age forefathers following herds of bison and reindeer as they migrated north during the Ice Age, then a walk in the Peak District following Robert Harris’s routes offers a clearer understanding of a very different way of life experienced by these first settlers.  Stone circles, standing stones and burial mounds are scattered across the spectacular landscape, with ancient settlements and forts perched high on isolated hills. There are also secret tombs, caves hidden away within deep valleys, where strange and unexplained rituals took place.  The author has divided the area into four sections - the familiar limestone plateau and deep-cut dales of the White Peak, and the three areas if high gritstone moorland surrounding it (the Dark Peak, Eastern Moorlands and Western Moorlands).  The walks are all circular, ranging in length from 4 to 10 miles, and start and finish in a town or village that is easy to locate and convenient to reach by car. They vary in difficulty from quiet lanes and well-marked footpaths to more demanding climbs up onto the bleak heaths and edges of the higher moors. They are all worthwhile walks in themselves as they pass through some of the finest scenery England has to offer, but the fascinating historical detail Robert Harris has unearthed gives each walk an added interesting focus.
