The countryside is filled with beauty & wonder in these imaginative, idiosyncratic writings, but also cruelty & hardship. They describe the texture of an owl's feather, the colours of autumn & the sound of rooks' wings sweeping across the sky. Yet here too is the grinding toil of reaping the harvest, & the discovery of a gamekeeper's bloody kill. Brimming with intense feeling, these pieces show an acute awareness of the l&, & the people on it. Generations of inhabitants have helped shape the English countryside
- but it has profoundly shaped us too. It has provoked a huge variety of responses from artists, writers, musicians & people who live & work on the land
- as well as those who are travelling through it. English Journeys celebrates this long tradition with a series of twenty books on all aspects of the countryside, from stargazey pie & country churches, to man's relationship with nature & songs celebrating the patterns of the countryside (as well as ghosts & love-struck soldiers).
