Engel's England: Thirty Nine Counties, One Capital, One Man by Matthew Engel |
The journalist Matthew Engel takes an entertaining series of journeys around an England disfigured but not defeated by the misconceived 1974 reorganisation of the counties. Engel makes an engaging companion; funny, unexpected, occasionally angry, and with his sympathies firmly on the side of the quirky and independent and against the idiocies of money and power. He made me want to go to all sorts of places, I'd never thought of - a good test.
