Since 2008, I have written and illustrated a number of books, including walking guidebooks published by Cicerone Press such as Walking on Dartmoor, Walking in the New Forest and Walking the Kennet and Avon Canal. These guidebooks detail a range of walks, from easy wanders to full day walks, that allow you to explore some of the National Parks, National Landscapes (formerly Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty - AONB) and tranquil open countryside that can be found in southern and south-west England.
To find out more about each book, just click on the book images below. To showcase a specific area, I have arranged a selection of photographs from some of my books into short slideshows.
Books are available direct from the publisher (see the relevant link on each book page), through local independent bookshops, or online from various outlets, including Bookshop.org. If you have any comments, or would like more information on any of my books, please contact me; information about new guidebooks may also be found on my social media channels.
