What is it that makes Britain's coast so unique? Twenty five years after the launch of the National Trust's highly successful campaign to acquire over 900 miles of beautiful coastline in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, Charlie Pye-Smith set out in search of Entrprise Neptune. Penetrating and assured, the author describes the Trust's presence on the coast with with and precision. In his own words, "What would have been lost were it not for the Trust does not bear thinking about.".
