Wainwright's Pictorial Guide 1: The Eastern Fells
A reproduction of the book first published in 1955. The book describes 35 of the Lake District's Eastern Fells, including Great Dodd, Helvellyn, Nethermost Pike and Stybarrow Dodd. Gives various routes to the summit of each.The Eastern Fells include the greatest single concentrated mass of high ground in Lakeland: a tremendous barrier running north and south, high and steep all along its length, rising to above 3000 feet on Helvellyn - the most-often climbed mountain in the Lake District. Popular resorts such as Ambleside and Grasmere lie in this sector of the fells, as does the beautiful Patterdale valley (the best base, in Wainwright's view, for exploring the area).
