Touring the places that were the homes or the inspirations of our greatest writers and the places where their characters walked, "A Reader's Guide" is both a travel guide and bedside companion. It seeks to bring every location to life with anecdote and incident.
Touring the places that were the homes or the inspirations of our greatest writers and the places where their characters walked, "A Reader's Guide" is both a travel guide and bedside companion. It seeks to bring every location to life with anecdote and incident: from the Oxford of three of the world's greatest authors of stories for the young - Lewis Carroll, J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis to Wordsworth's Lakes, the London of Keats, Coleridge and Dickens, the South Wales of Dylan Thomas, Robert Louis Stevenson's Edinburgh and, not neglecting modern writers, the Newmarket of Dick Francis and the Tyneside of Catherine Cookson. These and hundreds more landscapes and towns are the subject of this illustrated guide which was complied with the cooperation of the tourist boards of England, Scotland and Wales.
