Beatrix Potter's Derwentwater

The renowned 1903 Derwentwater sketchbook was published in a limited facsimile edition by Warne in 1984. Now making use of much of the material from that sketchbook, here is a general book about Derwentwater both as Beatrix Potter depicted it in her "Peter Rabbit Books" sketches and as it is today, with detailed walks starting from Keswick, exploring the marvellous scenery found in "Benjamin Bunny", "Squirrel Nutkin" and "Mrs Tiggy-Winkle". The book is illustrated throughout with black-and-white photographs, sketches and prints, with a sixteen page colour section which compares Beatrix Potter's original illustrations with modern photographs of the same scenes.
