Take a road trip back to the 1920s, when motoring was an adventure, England was an undiscovered country and traffic jams had yet to be invented! Reprinted for the first time in over 70 years, Sydney R Jones' guide to exploring England by car offers a fascinating glimpse of both the delights and the drawbacks of road touring in the days before motorways. From Cornwall's rocky headlands to the wild moorland around Hadrian's Wall, and taking in Canterbury, the Fens, the Peak District and the green hills of the Marches, Jones' enchanting descriptions and line drawings capture the English countryside at its most charming. His journeys will enthrall both armchair holidaymakers and those with a thirst for seeking out England's finest treasures.
