Isle of Man (Slow Travel)
Part of Bradt's distinctive, award-winning series of 'Slow' travel guides to British regions, Isle of Man (Slow Travel) is a new guidebook celebrating this self-governing Crown Dependency in the Irish Sea. Written with intimate detail and insider tips by an author born and raised locally, it offers a more personal, off-beat selection of places to explore than other guides, and its text is infused with vibrant stories and local voices. Easily accessible from mainland Britain yet different enough to feel like a real adventure, the Isle of Man is a remarkable destination in the heart of the British Isles. With a strong sense of their own cultural and political identity, Manx people take great pride in their blend of Celtic and Viking roots. At a thousand-plus years old, the Manx parliament (Tynwald) claims to be the world's oldest continuous parliamentary assembly, while music and cultural events celebrate the island's status as one of the six Celtic nations. Folklore and superstition are entwined with everyday life in ways largely forgotten elsewhere: children still celebrate Hop tu Naa instead of Halloween, bonfires are lit for Oie Voaldyn on 30 April - and woe betide anyone who forgets to greet the fairies as they cross Fairy Bridge. Often described as "the British Isles in miniature", this island of 30 miles by 13 miles harbors flat plains in the north, rugged hills down its spine, beautiful sandy beaches in the west and craggy cliffs dimpled with smugglers' coves in the east and south. Whether along main roads linking its major settlements (Douglas, Ramsey, Peel and Castletown) or winding country lanes, from steam trains or footpaths lined with coconut-scented gorse, it is hard to find a spot that doesn't provide a stunning view - whether out to sea, down valley to an old fishing port or across heather-dappled hills. From basking sharks to four-horned loaghtan sheep, the Isle of Man TT motorbike race to Cregneash's folk village, ghost tours to the Great Laxey Wheel, Neolithic standing stones to the world's oldest tram, Bradt's Isle of Man (Slow Travel) is the essential guide for discovering this under-the-radar destination.

Shropshire (Slow Travel)
Part of Bradt's distinctive, award-winning series of 'Slow' travel guides to UK regions, this new, thoroughly updated third edition of Shropshire (Slow Travel) remains the only standalone guidebook to provide in-depth coverage of England's largest landlocked county. Although often overlooked, Shropshire is remarkable - "the nearest earthly place to paradise," according to author P.G. Wodehouse. The county has been touched by every era of history the British Isles have known: Bronze Age people, Iron Age tribes, Romans, Saxons and Normans all left their marks in hillforts, earthworks, roads, churches, place names and legends, while Shropshire's position at the once-turbulent Anglo-Welsh borders has left a legacy of castles, castle ruins and fortified manor houses, all carrying stories of clashes and feuds. In the north, flat, fertile plains plus meres and mosses give way to hills, valleys and woodland in the south. In the Shropshire Hills ('quintessential Shropshire'), Church Stretton was popular with Victorians for its Alps-like air and is an ideal walking base for the Stretton Hills and the Long Mynd. Bishop's Castle is home to a 'poetry pharmacy' and the country's oldest working brewery. Genteel Ludlow is a nationally famous foodie destination: Britain's 'Slow Food capital' hosts four of the county's nine Michelin-guide Bib Gourmand restaurants. Southeast Shropshire has Bridgnorth, with its quirky cliff railway joining Low Town to High Town, and Much Wenlock, birthplace of the modern-day Olympics. The Telford and Wrekin region incorporates the spectacular UNESCO site of Ironbridge Gorge and ten excellent museums. Writing with intimate detail and insider tips, author Marie Kreft offers detailed descriptions of place, historical overviews, ghost stories and folk tales, plus first-hand accounts from Shropshire residents and a hand-picked selection of restaurant recommendations. Emphasising car-free travel, local produce and characterful accommodation, the guide unapologetically takes you the long way round - through ancient woodland, over bridges and 'Blue Remembered Hills', back in time, into castles, churches and interesting pubs - cheerfully and wittily savouring the authentic, offbeat and local. All in all, Bradt's Shropshire (Slow Travel) is an indispensable guide to one of Britain's most scenic and intriguing counties.

111 Places in Northumberland That You Shouldn't Miss
Northumberland is the 'Land of the Far Horizon' and England's most northerly county. Written by a proud Northerner, this book will help you discover the more offbeat corners of Northumberland, and appreciate its many treasures. Revised and updated edition.

This Is Not My Land
This is Not My Land is award-winning travel writer Caroline Mills' enchanting narrative about life on a small farm in the heart of the English countryside. In 1995, when Caroline and her partner Paul were in their early 20s, they bought 65 acres of land on the edge of the north Cotswolds. Initially, they regarded it innocently as just land - something, hopefully, from which to make a living. Then they gave the land a name, and it became something. In almost 500 years, Caroline's land has had just four owners, including King Henry VIII. Walking repeatedly around the same five meadows and woodland, she witnesses how the farm and the surrounding landscape evolve across three decades. Realising that five fields and a wood is a big world in a small space, Caroline's nature writing exemplifies slow travel in its most microcosmic form. This is Not My Land brings the English countryside to life through a series of vignettes or 'journeys'. Learn how Caroline and her partner learn to manage and expand a designated wildlife site, how they build an eco-house and how they interact with nature. Join Caroline in finding enjoyment in wildlife: the barn owl that tracks up and down the meadow at dusk, the plumes of chimney-sweeper moths that feed on the pignuts in spring, the migrant redwing flock that she awaits every autumn, and the ecstatic excitement of a skylark's arrival after 20 years of waiting. This is Not My Land recounts 30 years of living on and with the land, discovering an extraordinary 1,000-year history, transitioning to organic certification before it became fashionable (again), raising a family that becomes integral to the farm's identity, and learning its sense of place. Ultimately, Caroline realises that what she once regarded as merely 'land' is an increasingly rare and exceptional mosaic landscape - one with which she falls in love so deeply that it becomes unthinkable to her that anyone would wish to harm it, least of all those that with the power and duty to protect.

The Feminist Art of Walking
'Evocatively demonstrates the power of walking as not only a source of individual connection to place, but as something that helps us rediscover, and fight for, what matters to our communities' Leslie Kern, author of Feminist City'A moving and delightful wander through the personal and the political. A feminist manifesto for everyone who has felt the oppression of the city and wants to claim it back as a place of joy' Paula Serafini, Queen Mary University of London The allure of the city is powerful, but not universally accessible. For many women, it can be exclusionary, exploitative and dangerous. In The Feminist Art of Walking, Morag Rose shows how women can and do claim their place in the public space. Setting off to explore cities and towns across Britain, she traces local histories and personal stories and attunes herself to the wider resonances of women's rights amidst alienating capitalist cityscapes. Craving connection and comradeship, she discovers a unique and inclusive approach to walking, celebrating diverse women who transform walking into an art form and act of resistance. By experiencing the pleasures and pains of pedestrian exploration, she shows us how to reconnect with and become enchanted by our streets. Morag Rose is a walking artist, activist and academic.

London: The Extraordinary Guide
Go beyond the ordinary with this beautifully illustrated travelogue and guidebook to find the real London. Explore the authentic side of London, with a richly photographed, intoxicating mix of history and the cosmopolitan present day. Perfect for an adventurous traveler --where The Rough Guide crowd meets the Wallpaper audience--this book is for anyone yearning to be inspired and excited by travel, and who is hungry for the less obvious. The Extraordinary Guide: London will take you on a local's tour of this famously multicultural city. Beyond the iconic buildings, grand architecture, and famous museums, discover the village-like enclaves and quaint neighborhoods that make up many of the city's postcodes. From West London--where rainbow-colored terraces and pretty, Instagrammable mews rub shoulders with Portobello Road's vintage and antique markets--to East, where Shoreditch's thriving art scene of street murals, galleries, and studios form an ever-changing backdrop to the food stalls and pop-up cafes that are home to some of the best international cuisine in the world. There is a chapter for each of the key neighborhoods along with maps, walking itineraries, and lists of the essential pit stops along the way.

Into the Fog: Sherlock Holmes' London
Into the Fog: Sherlock Holmes' London leads readers through the capital as Holmes and Watson knew it -- a city of gaslight, theatres, grand hotels and shadowed alleys. This guide sets Arthur Conan Doyle's stories against the map of London, tracing their adventures from Baker Street to Brixton, from Pall Mall to Paddington. Real addresses stand beside the fictional: vanished lanes, demolished halls and invented squares, all layered onto the living city. Each entry places a story in its setting, exploring both the history and the imagination that shaped it. Whether stepping into a Turkish bath on Northumberland Avenue, following a Christmas goose to Covent Garden, or glimpsing fragments of the Red-Headed League off Fleet Street, readers walk the blurred line between fact and fiction. An essential companion for Sherlockians and London-lovers alike, Into the Fog reveals a city elusive, atmospheric and steeped in intrigue.

East Devon & the Jurassic Coast
Part of Bradt's distinctive, award-winning series of 'Slow' travel guides to UK regions, this new, thoroughly updated third edition of Bradt's East Devon and the Jurassic Coast (Slow Travel) remains the most comprehensive - and only standalone - guide available to this area. Written with insider knowledge that can only be gained by living in the area, and combined with colourful, enthusiastic and witty writing, plus contributions from local experts, this guidebook is as much a pleasure to read as an invaluable companion for exploring east Devon and west Dorset. Devon is the fourth most popular county for UK holidaymakers - and for good reason. Over a hundred square miles of East Devon are designated a 'National Landscape' (formerly 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty') and the internationally famous Jurassic Coast stretching into Dorset is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The charming coastal town of Seaton, which hosted American forces in the run-up to World War II's Normandy D-Day landings, benefits from the extension (to wildlife-packed Seaton Wetlands) of the Stop Line Way, a long-distance cycling and walking route, originally designed for World War II defences. Wolford Chapel is a little piece of Canada given to the people of Canada in 1966, where the Maple Leaf is still hoisted daily. Dorset's Lyme Regis, meanwhile, is Britain's fossil-hunting capital - as featured in the 2020 film Ammonite, starring Kate Winslet. With an emphasis on car-free travel - walking, cycling and local buses - this Bradt guide's detailed descriptions, historical glimpses, folklore and personal anecdotes whet visitors' appetite for exploration. Many activities are covered for the first time in this new edition. Coastal walking has never been better following the reopening of the South West Coast Path locally. Savour the artisan coffee that has become a big deal locally, or taste the produce of the region's fastest-growing agricultural sector: wine. Giggle at the goings on at the ancient Goose Fayre in Colyton, and enjoy other idiosyncratic local festivals such as the Ottery tar barrels and Honiton hot pennies. And indulge in one of Beer's Devon cream teas while admiring this picturesque fishing village. Wherever you amble, let Bradt's East Devon and the Jurassic Coast (Slow Travel) be your companion.
