first map covers from Lands End in Cornwall to Plymouth. The maps
are all produced at a scale of 1:100 000 showing important features
including the National cycle Network. Sections on road, off road
and traffic free are all shown in differing colours along with
their route number. Other roads and their classification are shown
enabling you to link rides or explore sections and discover new
routes at home or further afield. Facilities such as toilets, pubs,
accommodation, bike shops, repair stations and railway stations are
all shown. The mapping also has relief shading giving you a clear
picture of the terrain (and steepness of any hills) you will
encounter. Scale: 100 000 (10mm = 1 Km, 16mm = 1 Mile) Folded size:

The worldwide bestseller - 1/4 million copies sold 'Written by a
World Barista Champion and co-founder of the great Square Mile
roasters in London, this had a lot to live up to and it certainly
does. Highly recommended for anyone into their coffee and
interested in finding out more about how it's grown, processed and
roasted.' (Amazon customer) 'Whether you are an industry
professional, a home enthusiast or anything in between, I truly
believe this is a MUST read.' (Amazon customer) 'Informative,
well-written and well presented. Coffee table and reference book -
a winner' (Amazon customer) 'Very impressive. It's amazing how much
territory is covered without overwhelming the reader. The abundant
photos and images are absolutely coffee-table-worthy, but this book
is so much more. I think it would be enjoyable for an obsessed
coffee geek or someone who just enjoys their java.' (Amazon
customer) For everyone who wants to understand more about coffee
and its wonderful nuances and possibilities, this is the book to
have. Coffee has never been better, or more interesting, than it is
today. Coffee producers have access to more varieties and
techniques than ever before and we, as consumers, can share in that
expertise to make sure the coffee we drink is the best we can find.
Where coffee comes from, how it was harvested, the roasting process
and the water used to make the brew are just a few of the factors
that influence the taste of what we drink. Champion barista and
coffee expert James Hoffmann examines these key factors, looking at
varieties of coffee, the influence of terroir, how it is harvested
and processed, the roasting methods used, through to the way in
which the beans are brewed. Country by country - from Bolivia to
Zambia - he then identifies key characteristics and the methods
that determine the quality of that country's output. Along the way
we learn about everything from the development of the espresso
machine, to why strength guides on supermarket coffee are really
not good news. This is the first book to chart the coffee
production of over 35 countries, encompassing knowledge never
previously published outside the coffee industry.
This new title is one of the first two in an updated series of Paul
Hannon's `Short Scenic Walks' guidebooks. The principle feature is
that all walks are less than five miles in length, offering a
perfect half day's stroll for families, casual walkers and all who
want to enjoy a leisurely exploration of Britain's outstanding
country landscapes. A range of enhancements include a wider
geographical spread, in this case merging - with full revision, two
popular titles which are now out of print. The walks start from
such places as Harrogate, Knaresborough, Pateley Bridge and Ripon,
and include such iconic landmarks as How Stean Gorge, Brimham
Rocks, Studley Royal, Almscliff Crag, the Nidd Gorge and the
Washburn Valley. In addition to being more visually appealing than
their predecessors, with a more modern house style, this new series
offers 30 walks rather than 20, and these more substantial books
feature a full spine rather than wire-stitched binding. Over 30
colour photographs depict features and landscapes along the routes.
Highly illustrated, full colour book showcasing what is unique
about the North Coast 500. Striking images and descriptive text of
the best places to visit are shown along with a simple route map
showing locations. 100 of the best places to stop on route
