This book provides an excellent introduction to
this solitary, wild countryside. Everyone is catered for from weekend family
walkers to the experienced hill walker with all the walks personally checked
and trod by the author. Each route contains details of the natural history,
geology and archaeology of the area descriptively written by Edward Baker who
has lived his whole life in the region. For ease of reference, the book is in
two sections, covering the northern and southern Cheviots - distinct areas with
their own unique character.
There are almost 50 walks - by far the most comprehensive
collection published for the Cheviots.
Edward Baker has lived within the border region
all his life. He is an experienced walker and has travelled the length and breadth
of the Cheviots planning and recording these walks. All the walks have been
checked and personally trod to ensure the accuracy of the routes.
