Reviews
"I enjoyed reading this book; so much so that my girlfriend, who travelled with me for the first part of my recent trip within the Dolomites, was telling me to put it down in bed; on occasion, she remained in the car and I would venture off into the landscape on a reccie, only to come back and find her buried in it!" – Ollie Taylor (read the review)
"As a keen photographer I have many guidebooks and I can easily say that this is the best I have purchased" – Stephen Jon Hinde (read the review)
