England, 1983 reprint. 556 pp, many b/w illustrations. Used softcover Very Good. 

When backpacking exploded in popularity in the 1960s this was one of the only books available as instructional. Then 3 years later The Complete Walker by Colin Fletcher came out and was the bible of how to hike and sleep in a tent. 

Approved by The British Mountaineering Council & The Mountaineering Council of Scotland. Very comprehensive how-to by a well known and established climber in his own right. 
 
How, Where and When on all aspects of hill walking, scrambling, climbing, snow & ice and Alpine techniques in England, Scotland, Wales,  Ireland, and the Alps of France, Austria, Switzerland, and Italy. Profusely illustrated throughout with explanatory diagrams and b/w photographs.
