Christopher Knowles Author & Editor

The late Christopher Knowles organised walking holidays in the Cotswolds for 25 years, and was the founder of Cotswold Journeys which still runs popular holidays. His expertise on the region was reflected in several books that he wrote and the itineraries that he devised. He researched and devised many Cotswold walking routes, including the three featured in his guidebook for Rucksack Readers. For many years he had travelled professionally around the world, particularly to Italy, China and Russia. His account of travelling by train between London and Hong Kong in the 1980s 'The Red Line: a train journey through the Cold War' was published in 2017 by Pen & Sword.
