Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Through past and present, the country and the city, Peter Fiennes takes a literary journey through the British Isles As enjoyable a guide to the relationship of writers to the landscape of Britain as one could hope to read: beautifully written, moving in its reflections, and often very funny. Tom Holland The premise of this book is simple, or that is what it seemed when I started. Peter Fiennes follows in the footsteps of twelve inspirational writers, bringing modern Britain into focus by peering through the lens of the past. The journey starts in Dorset, shaped by the childhood visions of Enid Blyton, and ends with Charles Dickens on the train that took him to his final resting place in Westminster Abbey. From the wilds of Skye and Snowdon, to a big night out in Birmingham with J. B. Priestley and Beryl Bainbridge, Footnotes is a series of evocative biographies, a lyrical foray into the past, and a quest to understand Britain through the books, journals and diaries of some of our greatest writers. And as Fiennes travels the country, and roams across the centuries, he wonders: Who are we? What do we want? They seemed like good questions to ask, in the company of some of our greatest writers, given these restless times. *** AGuardianTravel Book of the Year Shortlisted for the Edward Stanford Travel Writing Awards Fiennes is a perceptive reader and a good-humoured guide and his book offers a superb commentary on the connections between lesser-known places and writers Footnotes is a passionate, partisan call for readers to take action before the British countryside may be encountered only between the pages of a book. TLS Honing his easy-going and often witty style in this new book, Fiennes takes us on the journeys of famous writers Theres an infectious enthusiasm and self-deprecating authority to Fienness insights and hes a most agreeable companion There will be many nature titles vying for a place on Christmas lists this year This one should be towards the topGuardian Marvellously quotable.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. To War With God is the moving account of Anglican chaplain Edward Montmorency 'Monty' Guilford's service in the First World War. Written by his grandson, it draws on first-hand material, including Monty's diaries, photographs and letters, tracing his journey from his first days on the Somme through the mud and terror of Cambrai to Belgium and the Army of Occupation. Along the way, Monty won the MC but lost his faith. The book also looks at the war lives of four men who had a powerful influence on Monty: his beloved brother-in-law Jack Bigger, who went missing after only days at the Front; his friend 'Pullthrough', a poet and author of scintillating letters; Private Joseph Bateman, executed for desertion, who spent his last night with Monty; and Dick Sheppard, the pacifist preacher who helped Monty back to health after the war. To War With God shows a man's faith in God being tested by an onslaught of horror. But it also shows the joy, the confusion and the humour of life as a clergyman in the war to end all wars.
