I picked up this book expecting it to be a travel book as the sub-title suggests: 'A Gamely Gallop Through the English Counties' ; it is not. What it is is a book packed full of mainly insignificant facts that are not explained well. It is certainly not a travel companion and you would be much better off looking these things up online instead of buying this book.
