Jonathan Williams has been Cicerone and #039;s publisher and managing director for over 20 years, and Lesley Williams is Cicerone and #039;s marketing director. Although they met at sea, they quickly gravitated to the mountains and trekking, before taking on Cicerone to communicate their passion for mountains, wild places and other journeys on foot or by bike.
