2014In 1933, the eighteen year old Patrick Leigh Fermor set out in a pair of hobnailed boots to chance and charm his way across Europe, like a tramp, a pilgrim or a wandering scholar . The books he later wrote about this walk, A Time of Gifts, Between the Woods and the Water, and the posthumous The Broken Road are a half-remembered, half-re-iimagined journey through cultures now extinct, landscapes irrevocably altered by the traumas of the twentieth century. Aged eighteen, Nick Hunt read A Time of Gifts and dreamed of following in Fermor s footsteps. In 2011 he began his own great trudge - on foot all the way to Istanbul. He walked across Europe through eight countries, following two major rivers and crossing three mountain ranges. Using Fermor s books as his only travel guide, he trekked some 2,500 miles through Holland, Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey. His aim? To have an old-fashioned adventure. To slow down and linger in a world where we pass by so much, so fast. To discover for himself what remained of hospitality, kindness to strangers, freedom, wildness, adventure, the mysterious, the unknown, the deeper currents of myth and story that still flow beneath Europe's surface.110p.

1991Tall masts, the sun shimmering on the sea, boat-filled harbours, castles, minarets, and mosques are inescapable images of Bodrum and Marmaris. But there is more, much more. Lively and colourful as they are, it is sometimes a pleasure to escape the bustle of these popular resorts, to find solitude in the countryside, and this book shows you just how easy it can be. Although walking is emphasised, the book is not intended solely for walkers. The car tours will get you out and about on voyages of discovery, to visit regions of great natural beauty or historical interest. Among the not-to-be-missed excursions described are visits to the travertines at Pamukkale and to the fascinating rock tombs carved out of cliffs, towering above the river between Dalyan and Caunos and quite easily reached from Bodrum. Above all else, Bodrum and Marmaris have one feature in common they are both gateways to some of the most exciting walking country you can expect to find in the Aegean. Best time for walking: April, May, September, October. Includes 11 car tours, 52 long and short walks, 19 picnic suggestions Plans of Bodrum and Marmaris plus fold-out touring map 136p.illus (col) index Book
