For more than half a century, Betjeman's writings have awakened
readers to the intimacy of English places--from the smell of
gaslight in suburban churches to the hissing of backwash on a
shingle beach. Betjeman is England's greatest topologist: whether
he's talking about a townhall or a teashop, he gets to the nub of
what makes unexpected places unique. This new collection of his
writings, arranged geographically, offers an essential gazetteer to
the physical landmarks of Betjeman Country. A new addition to the
popular series of Betjeman anthologies, following on from "Trains
and Buttered Toast" and "Tennis Whites and Teacakes," this is a
treasure trove for any Betjeman fan and for anyone with a love for
the rare, curious, and unique details of English life.
