Description

Illustrated, With Dustwrapper

Two volumes from a seven-volume set, in the publisher's original cloth bindings, with the original unclipped dust wrappers.

The fifty-first impression of Book Four: The Southern Fells and the thirty-fourth impression of Book Seven: The Western Fells in Wainwright's definitive series of guides to the fells of the English Lake District.

These wonderfully illustrated accounts of the hills and mountains of the Lake District include hikers' favourites such as Coniston Old Man, Scafell Pike, Great Gable and Red Pike.
