A detailed topographic map of Iona, Staffa & Ross of Mull from the Ordnance Survey Explorer series. Edition A1; Publication date January 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.

Like its companions West Aegean & East Aegean, Ionian contains detailed information on many of the smaller harbours & anchorages which cannot be covered as comprehensively in Rod Heikell's major guide, Greek Waters Pilot. These handy cruising companions are ideal for charterers & flotilla sailors who are in the area for a short time but to make the best of it need all the essential background information on places to visit, history, food & travelling in Greece at their fingertips. Cruisers on their own yachts will also find much of interest & additional pilotage when cruising in the area. Heikell's style is easy to digest & gives pleasure in the details of the history, geography & social circumstances of the places described as well as the essential sailing information. The Little Ship This book, as well as being a practical manual on Ionian cruising, seems to have absorbed much of the author's personal feelings regarding the charm which draws him back to it, & any reader who has had a whiff of the magic spell of the Greek islands will sense this, & inevitably renew the resolve to return & experience it once again in greater measure. Nautical Magazine The illustrations are stunningly beautiful, & he covers each port or anchorage with detailed easy-to-follow charts. As usual, he provides entertaining commentaries on each place
