Each escapade includes stunning photos that capture the magic of the fells. Tanya recounts the embarrassing trips, falls and stumbles, false starts and abandoned expeditions, as well as the triumphs and adventures.This book includes all 214 of Wainwright's named fell walks, but you do not have to be an expert walker or fitness fanatic to enjoy fthem. Whilst heels may not be appropriate on the fells, a bit of style goes a long way. From scrambling up rocky crags and falling in muddy bogs, to conquering the highest fells and the highest heels, this is a journey with a difference.

49 Ways to Sexual Well-being focuses on women's sexuality, taking a positive approach to thinking about ways to fully experience, enjoy and explore their sense of themselves as sexual beings. Aiming to act as a friendly guide to those women who wish to discover or rediscover a sense of connection with their sexuality, it takes the reader on a journey to discover their sexual self by way of some ideas, suggestions and practical exercises, sometimes thought provoking and often light hearted. This book takes the view that by acknowledging the place that sexuality plays in all our lives we can make improvements in our confidence and sense of well-being. Unlike the traditional self-help sex manual focused on improving or mending a couple's sex life, this book emphasises the importance of feeling sexual in or out of relationships. The content is clearly about feeling rather than doing, and embracing the part that our sexuality plays in our encounters with the world and with our sense of well-being.

i This is the first book to focus on who was connected with which buildings in the City - from theatres to houses, lodging places to hotels, schools to work places. Many places are marked by commemorative plaques (of which there are more in Brighton than anywhere else other than London) but author Terry Philpot also draws attention to many other buildings, whose stories would otherwise go unnoticed.The book focuses mainly on the individuals' Brighton years - some in childhood, some in old age; some at the height of their fame, some the obscure years. Entries range from royals to revolutionaries; artists to architects; actors to aristocrats; comedians to clergymen; popular entertainers to politicians; musicians to the military; social reformers to sportsmen, and many more. These are the people whose lives have been woven into the city's unique history and passed through its back alleys and lived in its grand squares, some born to wealth, some to poverty; some spending their first years there, some their last. These are stories of ambition, extreme poverty and extreme wealth, disappointment, scandal, political endeavour, refuge, creative endeavour, murder, striving for fame - and sheer enjoyment.
