Susan Toth's travel writing is pretty fun to read, as she takes you places you wouldn't normally hear about in England/Scotland/Wales. In this volume, she describes a donkey sanctuary in Devon, the art of garden visiting, the lesser known but pleasantly remote Scottish island of Mull, and England's last-built grand castle, Castle Drogo. Quite enjoyable. ( ) This is the second book I've read from Toth. She and her husband are hardcore Anglophiles from Minnesota, spending much of their time in London while also driving all over the U.K., searching out gardens, castles and animal sanctuaries. These aren't just "my vacation" type memoirs, as Toth has 30 years of traveling about the U.K. and gets to meet with Lords to discuss their property. She's still enchanted with Great Britain decades later, which makes her an easy-going travel companion. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Susan Allen Toth's love affair with England is a long and happy one. Now, with England for All Seasons, she will entice even an experienced London visitor into exciting new adventures, from sharing the most scenic London bus routes to bargain-hunting to out-of-the-way places and personal walking tours of eccentric museums. With whimsy and a trenchant eye, she also traverses the country outside London: the estuaries and rivers of Cornwall, the lonely beaches of Anglesey, and the wild sea-lochs of Mull. Whether looking for literary landscapes or the most delicious sherry trifle, Susan Allen Toth illuminates the nooks and crannies of a multifarious culture, the vibrant, real England that every Anglophile dreams of finding. At once entertaining and contemplative, England for All Seasons is as delightful a travel companion as your liveliest, most trusted friend. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
