A LITERARY JOURNEY Through Wartime Britain by Ward A.C.

A LITERARY JOURNEY Through Wartime Britain

By

Publisher: Oxford

A choice item for the literate -- and for those who love England and would know the losses to civiliation and literary heritage the vandal of today have inflicted. A. C. Ward has taken his readers on a literary pilgrimage around London, with nostalgic recall of landmarks that are forever gone; his is a deliberate association with books and characters in books and their creators -- not with history. Then outside of London, and in the farther reaches of England, landmarks of literature in the highways and byways. Charming, at its best.
