Ventures and Adventures in Topography is a show that looks at the rich tradition of early 20th century topographical walking guides to London and the South East and explores what use they might be to us today. Each episode will take a trip through the pages of a different book as if we are embarking on a wayward topographical ramble, and will include contemporary field reports from walks in the areas described in these classic texts. Presented by John Rogers and Nick Papadimitriou.
