A motoring tour of Britain which aims to avoid major roads and urban sprawl, to explore little-known back roads through beautiful countryside and to take in some major tourist attractions via these alternative routes. The reader can follow the routes exactly.
The idea which inspired this book was to drive around Britain by car, avoiding motorways, major roads and urban sprawl; to explore the little-known back roads through some of the most beautiful countryside in the world; and at the same time to take in a generous number of Britain's four-star attractions, such as Stratford, York and Edinburgh, while reaching them via some of the lesser-known but equally attractive landscapes. The reader can follow the route exactly, but should be prepared to get lost a few times, especially on the twisty country lanes. However, it is often the accidental detour that brings the rewarding chance encounter.
