Description
It’s God’s own country, according to local legend. A land of unimaginably beautiful countryside, derelict castles, cliff-hugging coastlines, brutally bleak moors, quirkily quaint villages, wondrously winding waterways and industrial monsters of cities. A land laced with the history of the Wars of the Roses, the English Civil War, the birth of the industrial revolution and the rise of the Labour movement, birthplace of legendary figures: Brian Clough, Harold Wilson, John Wycliffe, William Wilberforce, the Bronte Sisters, David Hockney and Barbara Hepworth. Über den Autor Ed Glinert was born in Dalston, two miles from the East End. He studied Maths and Classical Hebrew at Manchester University, but not at the same time. He worked for Private Eye magazine for more than 10 years, and has written a number of books for major publishers including The London Compendium and East End Chronicles for Penguin. He is one of Britain’s most prolific tour guides, working in London, Manchester and Liverpool, and gives talks on cruise ships. He knows who were responsible for the Jack the Ripper murders.
