Historical Journeys Don Ramsay

This book is about walks you can do if you have had a stroke and you are trying to improve your fitness and fight off depression. It has been written by somebody who has had a stroke and is determined to go walking. It covers everything from learning to walk again, to walking around the block, to going on trips. It has a key so that you can determine if walks are suitable before you go on them. It is called historical journeys because people who have had a stroke are not able to climb hills and look at the view. Instead there must be something of interest on the walk - an historic building or a view of scenery - that makes the walk interesting. The last section of the book tells you how to create walks that cover your area and could be done locally. The book also covers some indoor walks, that you could do when it is blowing or raining,
