| Mark Reid was born in Lancashire but moved to North Yorkshire at the age of six where he has lived ever since. Mark first fell in love with the countryside of the North of England, in particular the Yorkshire Dales, when he was 16 after visiting Reeth in Swaledale; he has since walked extensively in the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors, North Pennines, Peak District and Northumberland. Mark studied Geography at the University of Lancaster after which he worked for various large breweries as an Area Manager. Work began on his first book, The Inn Way…to the Yorkshire Dales, in his spare time in 1991 and Mark gave up his job to concentrate on writing following the publication of this Yorkshire Dales book in 1997. There are now six books in The Inn Way…series. Mark writes regular articles concerning walking and the Outdoors for several newspapers and magazines.
