Hey all,
Last week i was reading through various posts in the forum and i came across the name of a book, about Dartmoor. I cant quite remember if the person writing the post had been recommended the book or had read it themselves. It sounds like its a "bible" for those interested in everything to do with Dartmoor..... but i can not remember where i read the entry! :oops:
Any help? Even if its the name of a book you think it might've been. I appreciate that there are MANY books out there to do with Dartmoor... but as i said it seems like most people always refer and revert back to this as a guide.
I am totally bonkers ...but i have faith that one of you can help me :lol:
Best wishes

My bible is 'High Dartmoor' by Eric Hemery, its about 4 inches thick and refers to everything that is Dartmoor. Of course the 'unofficial' bible is 'Crossings Guide to Dartmoor' Which is just as informative but a litle harder to 'read'. Hope this helps.

Hey SS,
Thanks for your reply... i have a strong feeling its the first book you mentioned. The description sounds very much like what i read in the forum post... You haven't wrote about it before have you :lol:
Off to track it down on the web :D
Thanks again
Best wishes
