Summary

A charming, first-person celebration of England and Englishness by our foremost politician-turned-writer, out now in paperback

Description

Passionate, affectionate and indefatigably curious, In Search of England makes a journey around the English countryside and character. England is the most various of countries; within its borders, life changes mile on mile. Roy Hattersley celebrates crumbling churches and serene Victorian architecture, magnificent hills and wind-whipped coast, our music, theatre and local customs, and, above all, the quirky good humour and resilience of England s denizens. In Search of England is an unapologetic love story, a paean of praise for all the fascinating variety and flavour of England s places and people.
