After the success of his book on Lakeland villages, Jim Watson has returned to his beloved Lake District to explore the towns, which he found just as interesting and satisfying as the rural areas. Of the seven towns covered, three - Cockermouth, Penrith and Kendal - are outside the National Park area, but still well worth visiting. Lakes and fells do get a look-in. You can't appreciate Keswick properly without seeing it from a hill, or go to Bowness and not look at Windermere. Walks and occasional drives are included for the same reason. In a lively blend of over 500 superb drawings and maps, with historic details, anecdotes, opinions and walks, this is the most comprehensive and entertaining look at the seven towns of Lakeland ever. For visitors, local residents and exiles, "Lakeland Towns" is both guide book and souvenir.
