Wainwright concluded his 13-year odyssey in December 1965, a week ahead of schedule. Compiling this extensive work during his leisure time is a remarkable achievement. Notably, he meticulously mapped the entirety of the Lake District while concurrently maintaining a crucial civic role in Kendal. His choice to traverse vast distances primarily through public transport adds further commendation. Before the series reached its culmination, the guides had already evolved into indispensable reading for every fellwalker in Lakeland?a status they still hold. Under "Some personal notes in conclusion" at the back of the book, Wainwright highlights his preferred fells from the comprehensive series.
