The AA British Road Map Puzzle Book: These highly-addictive brain games will make you a mapping mastermind

Description

How well do you really know your way around Britain? Uncover the history of Britain's roads and work your way around its highways, byways, bypasses and backwaters in these map-based challenges. Test your word-puzzling skills, map-reading savvy, general knowledge and problem-solving prowess, with over 400 mind-stretching questions. Guaranteed to drive your mind round the bend, this is the ultimate quiz to British places for motorists and map addicts. From producing the first road signs and handwriting route directions, to its bestselling atlases and touring guides, The AA has been helping motorists navigate British roads since 1905 - and no one knows Britain's roads better.

Helen Brocklehurst worked as an editor at two of the UK's largest trade publishing houses before becoming Head of AA Publishing, where she earned a reputation as a veteran quiz setter and an unreliable keeper of scores. Until leaving the AA in 2018, she oversaw the production of millions of AA maps and atlases and was responsible for the AA's traffic and routeplanner webpages, serving as many as 4 million routes a week. Due to having no natural sense of direction, she is a devoted map reader and confesses to mild panic if she leaves home without one. She loves planning new running routes and being outdoors, and recently completed her first marathon and a triathlon in an attempt to offset her unruly passion for flapjack.
