"'a new book by Christopher Somerville, The Golden Step, part of Haus's Armchair Traveller series of superbly-produced, affordable hardbacks... Somerville's evocative poems are seeded through a text as readable and pacy as a novel' Daily Express 18 August 2007 'A finely written memoir... A more absorbing book about Crete - and indeed middle-age - is unlikely to come along for a while.' Daily Telegraph, Travel, 21 July 2007 'Somerville's writing is fluid and well-informed, his descriptions are moving and evocative.' Sunday Telegraph, 23 July, 2007 'BBC walking legend Nick Crane rates Somerville as an inspiration and as someone who "people will look back on and think: here's somebody that defined what recreational walking was like at the turn of the millennium". This gem of a book only emphasises Crane's astute judgement... A great armchair read for any given Sunday.' WALK Magazine, September 2007"

   För varje Kretavän

   En fin berättelse om en vandring från östra till västra Kreta där strapatser blandas med möten och öns rika historia. Synnerligen fängslande.
