They can be written on with suitable marker pens without any damage to the map but, unless laminated on both sides, they are not damp-proof.- ENCAPSULATED wall maps are sealed between two sheets of plastic. They are more rigid & heavier than laminated maps of the same size. They are damp-proof & do not crinkle in humid conditions. Encapsulation gives the map a shiny surface, similar to being displayed behind glass.- PLEASE NOTE: many publishers & retailers often use these two terms interchangeably. Our map titles & descriptions follow the definitions provided above.

Johnny Kingdom is the English countryside made flesh. He has lived his whole life on Exmoor, from his childhood catching moles to sell their skins, to his early wild days of adventure as a poacher, to today, when the demands of wildlife photography make extraordinary patience rather more useful than the ability to run fast... He embodies a way of life that may soon be gone for ever. His life story is both highly entertaining & completely enchanting. In Johnny Kingdom
- A Wild Life on Exmoor, we see how integral the both the landscape & the creatures of Exmoor have been to Johnny`s often hair-raising life story. When a horrific accident made him change his lifestyle & seek less physically demanding work, Johnny found solace in wildlife photography & has never looked back. His book is full of hilarious & captivating stories of his escapades, from how he spent the night in a jail cell with a red deer, to how he persuaded the local badger population to run along a mini assault course, turning wheels & tilting up & down on see-saws. Johnny is a wonderfully charismatic raconteur. This amazing book & new ITV series are already conferring on him the title of national treasure.

There are few people better acquainted with the West Country than Johnny Kingdom. His knowledge of local wildlife is second to none, but he's also a fount of knowledge when it comes to all the old stories that get passed down from generation to generation. West Country Tales is a charming collection of these local myths & legends, interwoven with many more anecdotes from Johnny himself & his forbears & friends. The atmospheric West Country landscape lends itself perfectly to dramatic tales of eerie hauntings & ghostly happenings, daring smugglers & dashing highwaymen, & many have heard of
- or might even have seen
- the modern-day legend that is the Beast of Exmoor. But what about the Flying Fish of Exmoor, a slippery catch of Johnny's that sailed up & over a bridge into the back seat of a passing open-top car, never to be seen again? Gently humorous & wonderfully evocative, it's only a matter of time before some of Johnny's own tales weave their way into West Country lore.
