- star of hit TV show Clarkson's Farm & Sunday Times bestselling author
- is here to take you on a guided tour of some of the UK's most eccentric rural traditions. In his smash-hit debut The World According to Kaleb, we learnt how Kaleb feels about everything from existentialism to comb-overs, & why he doesn't want to visit the Mediterranean. In this follow-up, Kaleb casts his focus closer to home to examine what people like to get up to in the great outdoors. You'll go gravy wrestling in Lancashire, nettle eating in Somerset, & venture to Hereford for the significant occasion that is Best Dressed Stick. Along the way Kaleb will muse upon enduring British traditions like Morris Dancing & country fairs with his trademark warmth & deadpan wit. For fans of Kaleb's unique perspective & amusing hot takes, this will be a must-read.   Product Information:  •†ISBN:† 9781529424812 •†Author: Kaleb Cooper •†Publisher:   Quercus •†Format:†  Hardback •†Pages:† 224 •†Dimensions:† 16.19 x 2.22 x 21.91 cm
