Laminated waterproof edition of a detailed topographic map of Coreen Hills & Glenlivet from the Ordnance Survey Explorer series, covering Bennachie & Ladder Hills. Insch & Rhynie Edition A1; Publication date September 2007 About this series: These highly detailed maps show all the administrative boundaries, settlements as small as isolated farms, the road network down to unfenced roads & country tracks, & field boundaries (hedges & drystone walls) which make navigation across the countryside much easier. Steep gradients on roads are indicated. Various landmarks, e.g. powerlines, archaeological sites, windmills, churches & lighthouses are shown & additional graphics indicate natural terrain features such as cliffs, scree, mud & vegetation variations. The contour interval is 5 metres in the lower parts of the country & 10 metres in the uplands, & spot heights are marked. Each map covers an area of 30 x 20km (i.e. approx. 19 x 12 miles), with some double-sided maps covering more, as indicated in the individual descriptions. The maps are fully GPS compatible, with the National Grid shown at 1km intervals & latitude & longitude indicated by margin ticks at 1'. The Explorer series has replaced the earlier, green-cover Pathfinder maps. The Explorer series is now complete & covers all of Engl&, Wales & Scotl&. Some sheets for popular areas like the National Parks are still branded as Outdoor Leisure (OL) maps, but are now included in this series as the cartography is the same as that in the Explorer Maps. The Explorer maps offer a substantial improvement on the Pathfinder series, with greater use of colour, larger area per map, & stronger emphasis on information for ramblers & tourists. This series is ideal for walking & other outdoor pursuits & each map shows a large amount of information for ramblers & tourists. Public rights of way are shown (except in Scotland), together with other routes with public access: National Trails & Recreational Paths, permitted paths & bridleways, & selected cycle routes.

One Easter a young actor, far from home, rents a house from a writer he`s never heard of called Kester Berwick, & becomes fascinated by the absent Berwick`s rootless, self-invented existence. Gradually, he finds his own life strangely echoing the absent writer`s, as Corfu`s eccentric expatriate community opens up to him. But is travelling a search or an escape? Is stillness stultifying or liberating? & where do love, sex & friendship fit? CORFU is also a meditation on literary landscapes, from Homer & Sappho to Chekhov & C.P. Cavafy. Dessaix is alive to Corfu`s ghosts
