- MAP TITLES: the grids shown on our website serve both the civilian & the military 1:50, 000 topographic series. Although the areas covered by maps in both series are identical (apart from some border or coastal sheets), occasionally map titles differ – only one title is shown on the grid, usually the military one. In Galicia, the Basque country & in the Catalan speaking areas the tendency now is to use local place names rather than the often better known Castilian ones. Where possible, both versions are included in our titles. Map titles listed on our website are based on information received by us at the time of publication, but sometimes maps arrive showing a completely different title! As long as the map number is as ordered, the correct map has been supplied.

But Paris` maddening, mysterious charm proves irresistible & Sarah makes spectacular progress. She finds work as a freelance journalist, learns to survive Parisian dinner parties & how to deal with grim-faced officialdom. As she navigates the highs & lows of Parisian life, covering the haute couture fashions shows & discovering the hard way the paradoxes of France today, Sarah succeeds in becoming `almost French`.

Day One, & already she was lying in her journal. It was 1993, Suzanne Roberts had just finished college, & when her friend suggested they hike California`s John Muir Trail, the adventure sounded like the perfect distraction from a difficult home life & thoughts about the future. But she never imagined that the twenty-eight-day hike would change her life. Part memoir, part nature writing, part travelogue, Almost Somewhere is Roberts`s account of that hike. John Muir had written of the Sierra Nevada as a ”vast range of light, ” & this was exactly what Roberts was looking for. But travelling with two girlfriends, one experienced & unflappable & the other inexperienced & bulimic, she quickly discovered that she needed a new frame of reference. Her story of a month in the backcountry
- confronting bears, snowy passes, broken equipment, injuries, & strange men
- is as much about finding a woman`s way into outdoor experience as it is about the natural world she so eloquently describes. Candid & funny &, finally, wise, Almost Somewhere is not just the whimsical coming-of-age story of a young woman ill-prepared for a month in the mountains but also the reflection of a distinctly feminine view of nature.
