between 7 and 13km, based around Evian-les-Bains, Morzine,
Abondance, Chatel, St-Julien-en-Genevois, Bellevaux, Boege and
Habere-Poche. Graded from easy to difficult, there are walks to
suit most abilities, but a few have some exposed sections and need
a head for heights. The guide is divided into 6 areas covering the
Saleve and Vuache, the Vallee Verte, the Vallee du Brevon,
Pre-Alpes du Leman and Val d'Abondance. With highlights including
Cornettes de Bise, Mont de Grange, Dent d'Oche and Pic Bore, the

outstandingly beautiful area. Alongside a detailed route
description and map, each walk has a summary of all you need to
know before you set out (distance, time to walk, ascent, maximum
altitude and instructions for accessing the start). The guidebook
includes advice on travel, accommodation and equipment, as well as
information about local wildlife and Savoyard food and drink, and a
glossary of useful French words. A companion volume, Walking in
Haute Savoie: South, is also available (ISBN: 9781852848118)
Guidebook to 35 half-day and day walks in France's beautiful
Dordogne region, based around Bergerac, Lalinde, Sarlat and
Souillac (Lot). The walks, which range from 6 to 18.5km, take in
the region's myriad delights, from spectacular gorges to enchanting
chateaux and charming medieval villages. All walks are within the
capacity of the average walker, and are on well-marked paths or
quiet roads. They are graded easy or medium; there are no long,
steep climbs or abrupt descents. There are step-by-step
descriptions and maps for each route. Also included is information
on the history, flora and fauna of the region, together with
practical pointers such as what to take and when to go, as well as
notes on waymarking, accommodation and transport. A route summary
table and glossary are also provided. Lying in south west France,
the Dordogne is a land of great scenic variety, from rolling wooded
hills and fertile valleys to barren upland plateaus and limestone
cliffs riddled with caves. The charm of the Dordogne also lies in
the picturesque medieval towns, chateaux, churches and abbeys that
stud the landscape, and these are the focus of many of the walks.

Everyone has questionable pasts they'd rather no one knew about and
such is the case for best friends- Cat, Liz, Celeste, Tangie, and
Vanessa. If they had their way, their shocking and dishonorable
pasts would stay buried deep beneath the innocent but misguided
smiles. They all have scandalous and shameful things lingering in
their pasts and soon they'll find out the "apple" hasn't fallen too
far from the "tree." Not only are they battling their own demons,
but also those from generations past and they'll soon run smack dab
into the hidden, less than desirable pasts of their parents. The
threat of exposure sends everyone scrambling for secrecy as
questions arise concerning their dark family histories. Everyone
struggles to keep their skeletons in the closet, but apart from
acknowledging and exposing the secrets, repetition is inevitable
and the generations to come are destined for destruction. What they
don't know can not only hurt them, but it can kill them.
Best friend's forever- that's Liz, Tangie, Celeste, and Cat.
Growing up together in a small town just outside of Charlotte
didn't prepare them for the horrible, life-altering events they
would soon face together. Their lives took them in opposite
directions after high school, but an untimely death brings about an
unforeseen reunion that exposes untold truths, deep dark secrets,
and uncovers "friendly" betrayal. They once believed their bond was
strong enough to survive anything, but overcoming the obstacles and
roadblocks life has thrown their way will prove utterly impossible
apart from confessing what they've each been hiding from one
another. Confessing the very secrets and lies they've held on to so
tightly is the price each must pay to keep their friendship intact.
Will their confessions fuse their friendship together even tighter,
or will it explode in their faces- totally obliterating what they
once knew?
