Best Walks of the Southern Highlands

Gillian and John Souter live in a village in Jervis Bay and have enjoyed recreational walking for many years. As well as this book on the Southern Highlands they have also written two another Woodslane guides, Best, Coast and Village Walks of the Illawarra and Best Walks of the Shoalhaven, plus three books on walking in Europe: Classic Walks in Western Europe, Walking Italy and Walking France. Their title Slow Journeys is an entertaining ramble among the pleasures and practicalities of walking.
