Biographical note
The late Gordon Simm was a guidebook author and an award-winning photographer. He lived in the North Yorkshire Moors National Park from the early 1980s until his sudden death in 2012 just after this guidebook was first published. He had been walking parts of the Cleveland Way repeatedly since his first completion in 1989. In 2011 he won the title "Photographer of the Year" in a Panasonic competition and his photos were showcased at the NEC.
Jacquetta Megarry is a professional author who became interested in long-distance walking and trekking, and turned publisher in 2000. After completing the West Highland Way, her first long walk, in 1998, she progressed to Mount Kilimanjaro, which she summited four times by different routes. In 2000 she devised the rainproof Rucksack Reader format with builtin mapping for walking guidebooks. She has since written or co-authored over 20 guidebooks and she updated this one in early 2021.
<p>The guide is a testament to excellent research, writing and photography.</p>
- Malcolm Hodgson, Cleveland Way Trail Manager
<p>This Rucksack Readers guidebook maintains their high standards. The pages on heritage are good with a fine section on the geology of the area and the iron and alum which were mined in the areas through which the path passes. The illustrations are superb and there are 90 colour photos which means that on completion you can refresh your memory of the walk. I particularly like the section on the History of the Cleveland Way which highlights the work of the pioneers as much of the walk has been used from the early days of leisure walking in England.</p>
<p>In future l will be using this guide when on the Cleveland Way … because l like this book which has all the information that l need in a compact format which can be easily used on windy days.</p>
- From an online blog, Bill's Walks.
<p>I knew Alan Falconer and Bill Cowley, both authors of guides to the Cleveland Way. ... I’ve visited and written about virtually all the places mentioned in the new guidebook. I am greatly impressed by its facts, figures and presentation of the Cleveland Way.</p>
- The late W R Mitchell, Editor of The Dalesman
