A JOURNEY IN ENGLAND
Author: Frank Binder
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1446606651
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Frank Binder's book Journey in England was first published, to critical acclaim, in 1932. His writing was also lauded in Eric Partridge's Usage and Abusage. The book describes in gloriously extravagant style, a tour of parts of England by train and on foot, starting with his journey from Bonn across north Germany to Harwich. He went on by train to see the great churches and other historic buildings at Ely, Peterborough, Lincoln, Liverpool, Chester, Stratford-on-Avon, Leamington and Warwick, then on foot through Kenilworth, Oxford and Thames towns and villages such as Reading, Maidenhead, Bray, Stoke Poges, Windsor and Runnymede, before hitching a lift into London. But now, at last, the genius of this remarkable man is belatedly being acknowledged and his well deserved place in the Pantheon of the great prose writers of English literature will be assured.
