  Within southern Scotland, a vast region which spans the breadth of the country between the Clyde-Forth Canal and the English border, lie well over 200 mountains, offering a complete contrast to the rugged grandeur of the Highlands and an alternative to the Lakes and the Pennines. The author of this book has visited all the mountain groups of the Southern Uplands, and presents 40 walks that take in areas of interest and beauty, and are suitable both for those taking their first tentative steps and for more experienced walkers. Straightforward maps and route descriptions are accompanied by colour photographs, tales of local history, and information about indigenous flora and fauna.
