East Devon is truly 'England's green and pleasant land'. Between
the River Exe in the west and the River Axe in the east lies a
patchwork quilt of wood and pasture, dotted with villages, hamlets
and scattered farms that have existed since before Domesday. In Exe
to Axe Devonian Gerald Gosling takes the reader on a journey,
illustrated with rare and atmospheric old photographs, through one
of this country's most charming and still unspoilt corners, by way
of farms adn ancient churches, along hidden lanes and past gentle
rivers, all characteristic elements of this distinctive place. Not
forgotten are the bustling seaside resorts, such as Exmouth,
Budleigh Salterton, Sidmouth and Seaton, or the people themselves,
including cider makers and carpet manufacturers. The author's
knowledge and enthusiasm for his home county are evident in this
entertaining tour through the region between Exe and Axe, a journey
of discovery that will be if interest to resident and tourist
alike.
