Download or read book Enid Blyton and Her Enchantment with Dorset written by Andrew Norman and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enid Blyton first visited Dorset at Easter 1931 with her husband Hugh Pollock; she was aged 34 and pregnant with her first child. She would later return to spend many holidays in, and around the town of Swanage in South Dorset's Isle of Purbeck, together with her two daughters: Gillian (born 1931) and Imogen (born 1935), and later with her second husband Kenneth Darrell Waters.What was it about this particular region that would draw her back, time and time again, and what pursuits did she choose to follow whilst she was here? In order to find out, we accompany Enid as she walks, swims off Swanage beach, plays golf, takes the steam train to Corfe Castle, and the paddle-steamer to Bournemouth.Although Enid's stories were drawn from her imagination, this itself was fed and nurtured by external experiences - in the case of the 'Famous Five' books, largely by what she had seen in Dorset. Whereas it is probably futile to attempt to match a specific real life location with her fictitious ones, nevertheless it is a fascinating exercise to retrace her steps, and having done so, to reflect on those topographical features which might have impinged upon her subconscious (or what she called her 'under mind') whilst she was writing the stories. It is often the case that when an author bases his work on a certain place, the subsequent discovery by the reader of that place's true identity may come as a disappointment. Not so in this case, for the real life locations are equally as interesting and exciting as the nail biting adventures of 'The Famous Five' themselves!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dorset Coast Would one, therefore, ' utterly eschew that wonderful invention when planning an exploration of this coast By no means. Only you must needs be a cyclist of stamina, endurance, and determination not like Hamlet, fat and scant of breath, nor yet one of those whose ambition is all for speed. A proportion of pluck, too, comes not amiss, and added to it, Of course, expertness, so that the trackless, roadless, steep and grassy sheep-downs which might otherwise have to be wearifully walked, under the rays of a vertical July or August sun, may be coasted. It will be gathered, in the course of these remarks, that, on the whole, the Dorset coast is scarcely to be intimately seen by the lady cyclist, who must take it in small doses, rather than in long expeditions.
