I read this book thinking it would help me to find ways to get outside more and to explore more adventures around me. This is a great book of you are looking for adventures and live in England. It also does get you thinking about how to recreate these in the town you are in even if not in England. I liked the pace of the book and I liked the way it was written, there is a bit of humor. There are a ton of tips and tricks at the end, I think I would have liked to have those at the beginning.
