I Never Knew That About the English - Christopher Winn
I Never Knew That About the English - Christopher Winn
This wonderful book takes an affectionate, entertaining and perceptive look at the English people.
Here are their traditions, foibles, quirks, customs, humour and achievements, triumphs and failures, peccadilloes and passions.
Travel through England from coast to coast and learn how every county contributes in unique and different ways to the distinct English personality. Marvel at crooked black and white halls in Cheshire and soft golden stone cottages in Midland villages. Go cheese rolling in Gloucestershire, discover the origins of cricket in Hampshire, savour a hot pot in Lancashire and a pudding in Yorkshire. Gasp at the glories of stately homes and the families that create them, upstairs and down, enjoy a pint. Listen to the memories and tales of ordinary folk from every walk of life and find out from them what it means to be English.
This irresistible book will entertain and inform for hours on end.
