Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Drive Through England, or a Thousand Miles of Road Travel This volume is the simple record of a most delight ful excursion, 'a Cruise on Wheels' of nearly a thousand miles, passing through some of the most beautiful portions of England. To the writer it appears that no method of see ing a country or a pleasanter way of spending a summer holiday could be desired, no form of travel so thoroughly enjoyable, or on the whole so inde pendent, as a driving tour. The journey herein related took some three months to perform, and, consisting as it did of a round drive from London to Scotland and back, was a most comprehensive one, and gave to those who made it a store of pleasant memories, a treasure gallery of rural and home scenes never to be for gotten.

Under his real name of Ettore Schmitz, he managed a factory in Charlton that manufactured underwater paints for the Royal Navy.

Download or read book How England Made the English written by Harry Mount and published by Viking. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harry Mount's How England Made the English: From Why We Drive on the Left to Why We Don't Talk to Our Neighbours is packed with astonishing facts and wonderful stories. Q. Why are English train seats so narrow? A. It's all the Romans' fault. The first Victorian trains were built to the same width as horse-drawn wagons; and they were designed to fit the ruts left in the roads by Roman chariots. For readers of Paxman's The English, Bryson's Notes on a Small Island and Fox's Watching the English, this intriguing and witty book explains how our national characteristics - our sense of humour, our hobbies, our favourite foods and our behaviour with the opposite sex - are all defined by our nation's extraordinary geography, geology, climate and weather. You will learn how we would be as freezing cold as Siberia without the Gulf Stream; why we drive on the left-hand side of the road; why the Midlands became the home of the British curry. It identifies the materials that make England, too: the faint pink Aberdeen granite of kerbstones; that precise English mix of air temperature, smell and light that hits you the moment you touch down at Heathrow. Praise for Harry Mount: 'Highly readable, encyclopeadic, marvellous, illuminating. Mount portrays England via dextrous excavations of its geography, geology, history and weather' Independent 'Fascinating. Mount's an intelligent, funny and always interesting companion' Daily Mail 'Charming and nerdily fact-stuffed' Guardian Harry Mount is the author of Amo, Amas, Amat and All That, his best-selling book on Latin, and A Lust for Window Sills - A Guide to British Buildings. A journalist for many newspapers and magazines, he has been a New York correspondent and a leader writer for the Daily Telegraph.
