James Benson


James Benson has never written a book, but has sold a few. He has worked for Cicerone as their freelance sales agent since 2013 - work that he enjoys enormously and which has taken him from Cornwall to Caithness by way of Stoke, Peterborough and Southampton.

James is a keen outdoor enthusiast, and has enjoyed sampling, and reporting on, Cicerone walks in a variety of counties and on several continents. He retired from hill lists on compleation of the Munros in 1991, having sneaked beneath the first thousand threshold.
