The Making of the English Landscape
Category: History | Published: 1955 | Review Added: 14-09-2010
The classic account of how England's landscape acquired its character. The book covers both the urban and the rural landscapes, and is written with passion and an appealingly personal touch. I can't remember very much about it, but I found it readable and fascinating. Plenty of photos too.
