"We ought to have a chart of some kind," said John. "It'll probably be all wrong and it won't have the right names. We'll make up our own names, of course." (Swallows and Amazons).

The maps in Arthur Ransome's five Lakeland novels are just some of their many pleasures. Each reveals something more about Arthur Ransome's imaginative re-working of the real geography of the English Lake District:

"The country is the country of my own childhood ... Then there has to be a little pulling about of rivers and roads, but every single place in those books exists somewhere and by now I know the geography of the country in the books so well that when I walk about in actual fact, it sometimes seems to me as if some giant or earthquake has been doing a little scene shifting overnight." (Arthur Ransome, writing in the Junior Bookshelf magazine, in 1936).

Our combined map, originally created for the benefit of modern day explorers using our Swallows and Amazons explorer app, uses elements from all five novels: Swallows and Amazons, Swallowdale, Winter Holiday, Pigeon Post and The Picts and the Martyrs.

Our mounted print illustrations measure approximately 24cm x 18cm. They are printed on 190gm, acid free watercolour paper and mounted in a 16" x 12" (approx 40.0 x 31.0cm) textured white mount, with a 1.25mm white backing board. Each mounted print is enclosed in a cellophane wrapper for protection.

Please note that the mount colour is shown darker than the actual product for clarity.

The mount is suitable for framing in a 16" x 12" frame of your choice (not included).
