Special Value - The Most Beautiful Country Towns of England
The Most Beautiful Country Towns of England
ENLARGE

By Hugh Palmer

Clustered around the parish church and green, or winding along an eccentrically curving street, small towns and villages are the very embodiment of English life. The richness and diversity of England's most beautiful country towns are recorded in this lavishly illustrated volume with absorbing commentary and magnificent photography. Included are market towns that have traditionally owed their importance and prosperity to the agricultural land surrounding them, towns that grew up by river crossings, small ports harboring both fishing and trading fleets, centers of religious activity, and even spas. The final section of the book features a list of useful information on sights to visit and places to stay and to eat.

208 pages, 250 full-color illustrations. 10 1/4 in. x 12 1/2 in. Hardcover; clothbound, with jacket.
