Written in Stone by Jill Sharp
Published to coincide with World Book Day, and accompanied by stunning photographs and etchings, this anthology is a celebration of England's landscape and the historic sites that enhance it, as seen through the eyes of some of this country's greatest writers as well as some of the lesser known ones. From Chaucer to Shakespeare, Wordsworth to Hardy, and the Brontes to Dickens, the passages in the book explore how the landscape and heritage of this country has shaped its literature. Extracts are included from: Dracula; by Bram Stoker; (Whitby Abbey); Tess of the D'Urbervilles; by Thomas Hardy; (Stonehenge); Idylls of the King; by Alfred Lord Tennyson; (Tintagel Castle); On the Origin of Species; by Charles Darwin (Down House); Kenilworth; by Sir Walter Scott (Kenilworth Castle); Henry IV; by William Shakespeare (Warkworth Castle)
