This book is the perfect follow-up to the successful Exploring Midsomer, which enticed lovers of Midsomer Murders and rural England to go and see the beautiful "Midsomer" for themselves. Now that they have ventured out, let’s offer them something to do, to see, to eat, and to drink. Easy is the byword of the book: easy walking, easy viewing, easy visits, easy eating, easy drinking, easy access, easy parking, easy directions—no OS Grid References, just the local pub’s post code for easy SATNAV use. Most walking books are normally designed for the serious walker. This book is Sunday afternoon friendly. Chris Behan and Martin Andrew, residents of the area for nearly 40 years, have used their skills and intimate knowledge of "Midsomer" to create a book that is a must for fans of Midsomer Murders and a must for those who love this charming part of rural England.
