“As an introduction to the highlights of reasonably-graded Peak District climbing, it's ace. And just as importantly, the photos made us want to get out there on the grit and climb.”

Jon Doran, OUTDOORSmagic.com

“...a more beautifully presented tome would be hard to find... a cursory glance through the guide will confirm that the pleasing simplicity of the design is backed up by superb photographs, concise text and drop-dead gorgeous photo-topos.”

John Horscroft, Climber Magazine
