Synopsis

Rachael: A Remarkable Child Explorer continues the story of that intrepid adventurer, my `granddaughter', Rachael Moseley. Of course, Rachael has never stopped having adventures but continues with the same infectious enthusiasm to explore the many different landscapes in the UK and abroad with her devoted and proud dad, Ian. This book records her further adventures with her dad and includes her three tremendous Coast to Coast endeavours. Read about Rachael's adventures on the West Highland Way and Hadrian's Wall then travel with her along Iceland's spectacular south coast. Explore the majestic Nepal Himalaya, the Pokhara and Annapurna regions and the historic Kathmandu Valley and learn, as Rachael did, about the lifestyle, culture and beliefs of the gentle, friendly Nepalese people.
