Spanish Trails - A Guide to Walking the Spanish Mountains
In this book Phil Lawler offers a wide selection of walks across the Picos de Europa in the majestic Cordillera Cantábrica, the Cantabrian Mountains, which run parallel with the Atlantic coastline in northern Spain. Phil has an intimate knowledge of this beautiful mountain range, as well as mountains in other parts of Spain. Many of the walks offer a choice of options and all are graded, with clear and concise information and useful tips. This handy and practical guide also indicates where you can find watering holes, as well as where to stay overnight and where to park your car. From an easy or moderate walk to a more strenuous and challenging ascent, there is something here for everyone. This is the first in a series of guides which will cover the Sierra Almijara and Tejeda in Andalucia, the Sierra de Guadarrama near Madrid, the natural park of Cazorla and the Ordesa area of the Pyrenees.

Walking in the Cordillera Cantabrica
A guide to walking in the Cordillera Cantabrica mountain range in northern Spain. This guidebook describes 60 routes spread throughout the area from selected valley bases with easy access. All the routes are circular and can be done in a day. In difficulty they vary from straightforward, half-day outings to strenuous, full-day ascents.
Spain's Sendero Historico: The GR1
A guidebook to trekking the GR1 Sendero Histórico through northern Spain. Suitable for fit experienced trekkers, this quiet 1247km (775 mile) route stretches from Puerto de Tarna on the edge of the Pico de Europa National Park, across the southern flank of the Cantabrian Mountains, through the Basque Country and Catalunya, to Sant Martí d’Empúries on the Mediterranean coast, and can be completed in around two months. The GR1 is divided into 53 stages of 11 to 36km (7–21 miles). These are presented in 7 sections, with start and end points that are easily accessed by public transport, for the benefit of those who wish to walk only part of the route. An extension to Finisterre and the Atlantic using GR routes is also included.

Tertiary Basins of Spain
This is the first book to deal comprehensively with Spain's tectonic and sedimentary history over the past sixty or so million years. During Tertiary times, Spain had suffered compressional collision between France and Africa, and its Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts had been further modified by extensional rifting.
Pre-Mesozoic Geology of Iberia
Pre-Mesozoic Geology of Iberia is a major reference for current understanding of the overall tectonostratigraphic evolution of the Iberian Massif. It represents a comprehensive overview which systematically describes characteristics of the seven major lithotectonic elements of the Iberian Massif in terms of: - stratigraphy, - paleontology, - sedimentology, - structural geology, - igneous activity, - metamorphic evolution, - metallogenesis, and - tectonic significance. These data are compiled in several concluding summary chapters which discuss the overall geodynamic evolution of the Iberian Massif and outline its tectonic setting within the overall circum-Atlantic region. Readers will benefit by this comprehensive review of an important tectonostratigraphic element in the circum-Atlantic realm.
Fluvial Depositional Systems
This book is intended to complement the author's 1996 book "The geology of fluvial deposits", not to replace it. The book summarizes methods of mapping and interpretation of fluvial depositional systems, with a detailed treatment of the tectonic, climatic and eustatic controls on fluvial depositional processes. It focuses on the preserved, ancient depositional record and emphasizes large-scale (basin-scale) depositional processes. Tectonic and climatic controls of fluvial sedimentation and the effects of base-level change on sequence architecture are discussed. Profusely illustrated and with an extensive reference to the recent literature, this book will be welcomed by the student and professional geologist alike.
