Take a Map!
The Walks themselves are really good and take you to some beautiful parts of Kent, and some really good pubs. However, the book is now 13 years old, two of the pubs have since shut, and many of the directions are either out of date, or vague, or open to various interpretations. The hand drawn maps are not particularly helpful in terms of orientation.
So buy the book, enjoy the walks, but look at the route on an OS Map first, and then take that map with you so you don't get lost.
If you're up for longer walks, we find the Michael Easterbrook book better.
Ordnance Survey Explorer maps 136,137,138,147,148,149,150 cover the county well - you don't need them all at once!
Happy Walking!

Caution needed
I bought this book about 12 years ago and enjoyed most of the walks, but recently we have tried some of them again and found that several of the pubs are now private houses and a few of the footpaths have been diverted, so an OS map is essential. Even 12 years ago I remember some of the directions were rather ambiguous. It's a shame this book couldn't be updated as the walks are actually very enjoyable (if you can find the way).
