Stourport Ring Pearson`s Canal Companion from Wayzgoose, also showing the Black Country Ring, the Dudley & Stourbridge Canals, & the Birmingham Canal Navigations. Pearson’s Canal Companions have for over 30 year now been presenting Britain’s network of inland waterways on handy size, informative guides which combine practical information with interesting descriptions & facts about the surrounding countryside. The routes are shown in sections on maps at approx. 2” to 1 mile, & are annotated with locks, towpaths & nearby facilities. Rather than providing a more technical picture of each waterway (depth, clearance, etc), these guides are indeed true “companions” with the accompanying descriptions full of interesting historical or literary references, little know facts, etc. Where appropriate the maps are also accompanied by recommendations for eating & drinking, shopping, things to do, & public transport connections. Each guide also

Includes::
a boating directory with hire bases, boatyards, ferries, etc. Please note: Pearson’s Canal Companions sometimes indicate facilities and/or places of interest without showing detailed road access to them; it’s perhaps advisable to use these charming companions with proper road maps of the surrounding countryside.

Today many English towns, adjusting to the needs of the 21st century, are turning to the historic environment as a means of reinforcing their identity & distinctiveness, precious attributes in a town`s local & regional profile. For Stourport-on-Severn, this special identity is written large in the central part of the town, for there can be few places with such a strong association with a single determining feature
- for Stourport, its canal infrastructure
- & with a discrete period of development
- in this case, the period 1770 to 1850. The regeneration of Stourport depends on many things but the protection & presentation of its historic environment must lie at the centre of efforts to bring new life to the town. Understanding how Stourport assumed its present form is crucial to public enjoyment of the place & to the planning of change & this book aims to contribute to both aspects by celebrating the town`s unique qualities & character.

Born in the foothills close to the Himalaya Steve Berry had from an early age an urge to become a traveller, an adventurer, an explorer, & until the age of 38 years he tried hard to satisfy two opposing forces. Half of him wanted to find a satisfactory career path while the other half wanted to be free & specifically explore the Himalaya. In the end he found a compromise to satisfy both needs. In 1987 with his climbing friend Steve Bell he founded Himalayan Kingdoms, a travel company specialising in trekking & expedition holidays. This book is a collection of stories from his early expeditions to the Himalaya prior to 1987.
