Originally published in the early 1950s, these editions of the famous Ward & Lock Red Guides have been republished, with barely any intrusions from the present. Presented in red cloth hardcovers, and with reproductions of the original period regional & local maps, it is not hard to imagine you are holding a genuine relic of half a century ago - right down to the vintage advertisements inside the covers. The most popular guides of their era, the Red Guides are crammed full of information on the areas covered, including statistics, history, folklore, wildlife, walking & rambling tips, culture, literature and local character. While practical information may be scant (not to mention out of date!) they are fascinating companions to a trip, as well as offering a nostalgic glimpse of times past.
