COMPANIONS WALKERS COMPANION by Malcolm Tait

A book bursting with great ideas for anyone whos ever laced a sturdy boot, packed a cheese and pickle sandwich, and put one foot in front of the other in search of stimulation, observation and contemplation. This wonderful compendium pulls together information from The Ramblers Associations own archives, a huge web survey, the literature of ages, and the rambling minds of walkers themselves. What would you do it you were charged by an elephant? What's the history behind Kendal mint cake? How do you pack a rucksack? Why did England's greatest essayist like to walk alone? Which soap characters should never have gone out for a walk? And, importantly, how do you ramble for sex? The Walker's Companion answers all these questions, and hundreds more.
Malcolm Tait is the editor of the Companion series, and of Wildlife Walks, also published by Think Books. He is editor of the magazines Conserver and Butterfly and contributes regular wildlife columns to national magazines. He is based in Maidenhead, Berks
