Statement from authors whose work has been used by others:

“Our books are the original guides to the area and have been personally researched and checked in the field over many editions. Collectively, we have been gathering material for the books in excess of 140 years. We recognize that some of our names for routes and geographical features have come into common use. We also recognize there is no copyright on titles.While we’re flattered that other authors are using our original ideas, using our data, even plagiarizing our words, we are disappointed they aren’t gracious enough to give us credit for the material used, which has undoubtedly saved them years of effort.”
