Special offer price for the whole set £60
My main guidebook to Spain and Portugal.
Written from the experiences of the Author on many journeys through the country. Duncan particularly enjoys exploring the back roads, small villages and towns that are off the main tourist routes. However, a number of world-renowned and World Heritage sites like the Alhambra in Granada feature in the book. ​​
He travels mainly on a large Italian motorcycle (Moto Guzzi) but the experiences, places and way of travelling are applicable to most forms of transport. ​The book has many hand-drawn maps to give you ideas for places to fit into your own journey – viaje. There are sketches and photographs to excite your interest and give you a flavour of the rich experiences that can be found in this wonderful country.​For your safety there is a section dealing with some of the legal requirements for driving/riding in Spain and diagrams of road junctions that may be unfamiliar and potentially dangerous.
An 8 day tour to Monte Perdido in the Aragonese Pyrenees staying in Paradors.
How to get from the Biscay Ports to El Pont de Suert at the beginning of the Catalan Pyrenees on the back roads.
A series that adds up to a grand tour of the Catalan Pyrenees and the Ara Lleida.
Revised 2nd Edition (2024) of a collection of my favourite campsites all around Spain.
My first book that tells of my adventures travelling Iberia solo from 2000 to 2010.
Every year from 2000 till 2009 I rode to Spain on my Moto Guzzi V10 Centauro.
This book is largely about my experiences on those journeys, but also includes articles on more general motorcycling and travel themes as well as life and the way we experience it.
I hope that the reader will not only enjoy the telling but will perhaps be inspired to commit their own journeys to paper; you will see that I have managed to improve the way I write, year on year, just give it a go!
​The printed version has over a hundred sketches, maps and photographs, the E-book version has of necessity only a few.
Of course, I also hope to inspire you to set off for Spain yourself, in a way that you might not otherwise.
This is not a guidebook (that is my book 'Sketches of Spain'). ​
My European travel sketches with the stories to go behind them.
A brief guide to making the most of writing about your travels.
