Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good Plus. First Edition. 1996. 160pp. B&W images and illustrations. "The building of footpaths on routes affected by erosion is a sound practical solution. The type and quality of the path is very important. It would be regrettable to see the uplands defaced by concrete pathways - extensions of the roads that we are trying to escape. This is why this book is so important. It draws together a set of principles which have been adopted by the Lake District National Park Authority, National Trust and English Nature, and a set of survey methods and techniques which can, and should, be adopted nationally. .It encourages the building of paths in the most unobtrusive way possible using the rocks and stones that are to hand wherever practical. As a result the paths are aesthetically pleasing, blending into the terrain they traverse". Covers, pages and contents are in excellent condition with minor pencil inscriptions and underlining. Bumps to corners and spine ends. PLEASE NOTE: Heavyish book so a little extra may be needed for shipping to non-UK customers.
