The West Country: Wiltshire, Dorset, Somerset, Devon and Cornwall (Pallas Guides)

Peter Sager, widely acclaimed for his guidebooks to Wales and East Anglia, has turned his attention to the West Country. From the mysteries of Stonehenge, behind barbed wire, to the suboceanic tin mines of Cornwall, from Hardy's Cottage to the Tintagel of Tennyson and Swinburne, from the Marquess of Bath's Kama Sutra paintings at Longleat to the light-basking work of the St Ives School, passing by sculptors, poets, furniture makers, and eccentrics of all kinds, this is comprehensive and mercurial guide.
