True Grit is a selective topo-style guidebook covering the major Peak Gritstone crags in a single volume. The six areas featured are: The Eastern Edges; Staffordshire Grit; Castle Naze and Windgather; The Kinder Plateau; The Longdendale Valley; The Chew Valley.

The style is immensely visual, with many of the crag shots offering a level of detail rarely seen before in a publication of this kind. The topos are supplemented by detailed maps and approach information, as well as stunning scenic and action photographs.

GPS co-ordinates are used, not only for key parking areas, but also to mark the locations of difficult-to-find crags and buttresses, enabling first time visitors equipped with GPS apps to reach their destination with minimum fuss. Over 4000 routes on the finest gritstone crags in the Peak District, in one volume.
