In Search Of England
By H.V. Morton
Published by The Folio Society: London 2002 1st FS Edition

"H.V. Morton's In Search of England is a classic travel narrative that captures the spirit, charm, and quiet beauty of interwar England. First published in 1927, it follows Morton's meandering journey through countryside lanes, historic villages, cathedrals, and market towns, offering affectionate and observant portraits of the people and places that define the English character. His writing combines lyrical description with keen wit and curiosity, revealing a nation rooted in tradition yet facing the stirrings of modern change.

The 2002 Folio Society first edition presents this beloved work with handsome illustrations and period-inspired design, perfectly complementing Morton's evocative prose. It stands as both a nostalgic homage to rural England and a timeless meditation on identity, landscape, and heritage. A delightful read for admirers of English travel literature, cultural historians, and anyone enchanted by the enduring romance of the English countryside."
