The Western Front has become, once again, and after 100 years, an
important and increasingly popular tourist destination. The
Centenary is already encouraging large numbers of visitors to
engage with this highly poignant landscape of war and to
commemorate the sacrifice and loss of a previous generation.
Interest is also being sharpened in the 'places of war' as
battle-sites, trench-systems, bunkers and mine craters gain a
clearer identity as war heritage. For the first time this book
brings together the three strands of heritage, landscape and
tourism to provide a fresh understanding of the multi-layered
nature of the Western Front. The book approaches the area as a rich
dynamic landscape which can be viewed in a startling variety of
ways: historically, materially, culturally, and perceptually. To
illustrate these two dominant interpretations of the region's
landscape - commemorative and heritage - are highlighted and their
relationship to tourism explored. Tourism is a lens through which
these layers can be peeled away, and each understood and interacted
with according to the individual's own knowledge, motivation, and
degree of emotional engagement.Tourism is not regarded here as a
passive phenomenon, but as an active agent that can determine,
dictate and inscribe this evocative landscape. The Western Front:
Heritage, Landscape and Tourism is a timely addition to our
increasing interest in the First World War and the places where it
was fought. It will be indispensable to those who seek a deeper
understanding of the conflict from previously undervalued
perspectives.

Walkers coming to Cheshire and expecting an entirely flat county
are in for a surprise. There are easy, undemanding walks that take
you across characteristic, pastoral Cheshire landscapes, invariably
passing through some of the attractive villages and by some of the
county's outstanding churches and country houses. But you can also
experience rough and challenging moorland hikes on the edge of the
Peak District, plenty of attractive woodland walks along the
sandstone ridge, or across parklands, or through the remnants of
the medieval forests, a superb choice of peaceful canal walks and,
on the Wirral, even coastal - or at least estuary - walking.
Why go to far-off places? CURVES went everywhere: Austria, Italy,
France, Scotland, the USA, even Northern Germany... But what about

breathtaking views, for roads with a goosebump factor and for
hospitable inns by the roadside, CURVES follows a route from
Baden-Baden to Koenigssee. The first stage goes very closely past
the headquarters of the best-known German sports car maker, but
that's pure coincidence. On tour with Stefan Bogner: scenic roads

breathtaking landscapes Travelling with friends: on-the-road
adventures and stories Soulful driving: about the happiness of
driving and the pursuit of racing lines Route suggestions, maps and
