In Unfamiliar England A Record of a Seven Thousand Mile Tour by Motor of the Unfrequented Nooks and Corners, and the Shrines of Especial Interest, in England; With Incursions into Scotland and Ireland.

A fresh voice invites listeners to wander beyond the familiar tourist routes of Britain, exploring hidden churches, quiet villages, and the atmospheric ruins that pepper the countryside. Written in the early 1900s, the narrative blends personal observation with vivid descriptions that capture the quiet charm of places like Sulgrave Manor, the Devon coastline, and the remote reaches of Wales and Ireland.

The journey is enriched by a striking collection of color plates and duogravure photographs, each carefully reproduced to convey the textures and colours that early travelers would have admired. These visual treasures, paired with the author’s thoughtful commentary, give a sense of stepping into a living picture book of the United Kingdom.

Listeners will discover a travelogue that feels both scholarly and intimate—a guide for the curious explorer who seeks the off‑beat shrines and serene landscapes that remain tucked away from the well‑trodden paths.
