This is a revised edition of the same title published in 2007. It takes the walker to every publicly accessible part of Windsor Great Park, revealing the history, with anecdotes, of the whole park. A few corrections have been made where there have been alterations to access, i.e. with car parks, gates and fencing.

David McDowall served in HM Forces, the British Council and the United Nations before turning to writing. He is an historian who has written on the recent and modern Middle East, British history and a series of walker's guides to publicly accessible landscapes.
