Review
'The English weather is notoriously fickle, but one thing that's certain is the beautiful countryside its changeable climate yields, here celebrated by a host of famous figures... A daily list of literary musings record the changing landscape from January to /December, each entry paying tribute to a season's particular qualities...' The Good Book Guide 'offers an insightful look at the diarists of olden days on a year-long journey, season-by-season, month-by-month and day-by-day, to discover their joys and musings on English life in both town and country.'
