Who better to describe this book than the author himself? On one of those gold mornings which April borrows from June, I set out alone in search of new adventures. And as I steered my slow and careful way out of London the joy of the road and the freedom of the days ahead sang wildly in my blood, so that I looked back on the myself of yesterday as a prison visitor regards a man who is serving a life sentence. First published in 1928, the reader is not only transported to the places but to the time - ten years after the end of the First World War and the year before the start of the Great Depression. There was prosperity and plenty, and the book is a presentation of the old and the new and the past and the present. With eight beautiful colour plates and other illustrations.
