Catalogue Note: This is the 2007 Second Edition of Alfred Wainwright's classic A Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells, Book 4: The Southern Fells (Hardcover, Frances Lincoln Ltd). Brilliantly revised by trained cartographer Chris Jesty—a revision personally endorsed by Wainwright prior to his death—this edition updates the original masterpiece for the 21st-century walker. All footpaths were re-walked, routes checked, and modern parking information added. Crucially, the revised edition overlays paths and routes in red ink to distinguish them from Wainwright's original black-and-white hand-drawn maps, aiding navigation while meticulously preserving the visual charm of the original work. 

Covering the highest, roughest, and grandest terrain in the Lake District—including Scafell Pike, England’s highest mountain—this guide is an indispensable companion for fell-walkers. Wainwright conveys the breathtaking grandeur of Great Langdale, the enchanting Borrowdale, and the remote sanctuary of Eskdale with unmatched affection and precision. The book serves both as a highly practical route guide and an exquisite piece of illustrated topographical writing.
