SPECIALIST PUBLISHERS OF GUIDES FOR OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES
Buy the books for peanuts!
We need to dispose of our stock of the Where to Ski guides, so they are now on sale here for the knock-down price of £1.99 a copy. Post and packing costs extra, and regrettably the amounts charged by our warehouse are non-trivial. The amount depends on the number of books you buy – it's all made clear at the checkout stage before you proceed to buy, of course – but for UK buyers the cost starts at about £6. It's much more economical to buy multiple copies.
Important note: this offer is proving hugely successful, and our warehouse is struggling to keep up with demand. Expect delivery in the UK to take 1–2 weeks. If you're in a hurry, buy elsewhere at much higher prices.
To buy a book, hit Add to Cart below, setting the quantity first if you want more than one copy. To learn more about a title before ordering, click on the main part of the cover image; you'll go to a page where you can access the contents page, and a typical chapter start page. To download an entire sample chapter, go to this form.
We ship to most countries where English is widely understood (and many where it is not), but not everywhere; there's more on this aspect in the background information given below. Shipping costs, which depend on where you want delivery, will appear at the Checkout stage. You can pull out at that stage.
But ideally look over this background info first
We’ve found from long experience that the postal services in many parts of the world are unreliable, giving rise to countless problems; this is why we are now a bit selective about where we ship.
We do ship to most of Europe; one of the main exceptions is Russia (which for postal purposes is in Europe). We ship to the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, and to a small number of places in the middle and far east.
The checkout address entry system includes a country dropdown; if your country isn’t listed in the dropdown, we don't ship there.
For the moment, at least, we have abandoned second class post in the UK, and now use only the more reliable first class post.
For addresses outside the UK, we offer only tracked postal delivery. Note that it is in principle possible for your country of residence to apply taxes to goods arriving from abroad, although we believe this is rare in the case of books.
Orders are passed to the warehouse without delay, and with luck are despatched the next day; but the volume of orders varies widely, and at busy times orders may slip to the following day.
