This Waypoint Guide has been compiled for the convenience of anyone who uses electronic systems for navigating the popular cruising areas of the English Channel, under sail or power. The waypoints presented in this guide have certainly been set with safety in mind, but they have also been chosen to be practical in all kinds of passage-making circumstances, whether yachts are pottering fairly close inshore within a local area, cruising between neighbouring coastal areas, or arriving on a particular stretch of coast after a longish offshore passage. Near the front of the guide is a set of charts, waypoints & routes for crossing different sections of the English Channel. In full colour with charts devised by Jane Cumberlidge

On more recent editions some GRs, the official long-distance hiking routes, are also marked (although not as clearly as on hiking maps from other publishers).

- 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.

This lyrical evocation of growing up on the banks of the Seine was originally published in 1964. In this minutely observed landscape, where even the wind is a character in its own right, we meet blind Battouflet, the singing hermit of the hillside, solemn Clotilde, the author`s first girlfriend who lives in a chateau in the heart of the forest, & a desiccated & disturbing spinster, Mlle. Firman. Fedden writes with preternatural clarity, taking the reader with him into a long-forgotten yet echoingly familiar world. When Fedden finds himself expelled from this realm by his emerging sexuality, he leaves us reeling with nostalgia for that timeless sense of the present that is the magic of childhood. ...

We have a choice: Breakdown or Breakthrough. In THE CHAOS POINT revered author & systems theorist Ervin Laszlo tells us that we are at a critical juncture in history, a `decision-window` where we face both the danger of global collapse & the opportunity of worldwide renewal. According to Laszlo we have six to seven years to head off unsustainable trends that would lead to a `tipping point` beyond which there is no turning back. After this tipping point we either evolve to a safer, more sustainable world, or the social, economic & ecological systems that frame our life break down. This is the Chaos Point, but this need not be the end of the world, only the end of a phase of the world beyond which a new world could dawn. In today`s decision-window we have a unique chance of creating that new world & this pioneering book tells us what healing & renewal means, & how each of us can help in achieving it. ...
