A charming new travelogue retracing the thirteen original routes of the 1951 Festival of Britain guides 'About Britain'
About Britain is an entirely fresh approach to travel writing. In 1951, the Festival of Britain published a series of thirteen short guides that they dubbed 'handbooks for the explorer'.
