Peter’s eighth book, another walking guide, Walks Discovering Lesser Known Dartmoor describes routes which lead ramblers to some of historical sites, views, waterfalls and abandoned dwellings which he has discovered in more than fifty years of walking on Dartmoor.

Dartmoor is also the theme for Peter’s ninth book. Dartmoor : England’s Last Wilderness . Peter uses the narrative of a varied selection of walks to discuss many of the issues and controversies affecting Dartmoor and asks the question, is Dartmoor England’s Last Wilderness? 

Peter’s tenth book also has a Dartmoor theme and will be published in January 2026. My Father’s Dartmoor is a celebration of my father’s sixty years of Dartmoor walking and campaigning, adding a little to the historical record of the National Park and completing the book he was unable to finish.

Peter is working on another Essex book, Essex Coast Revisited, for which he is repeating his walks along the county’s coast and on another Dartmoor book.
