The Coloured Counties by Anthony Gibson

An exploration of the landscape of central England and the writing it has inspired.
Anthony Gibson was born in Devon in 1949, the eldest son of the broadcaster and cricket writer Alan Gibson. He read History at The Queen’s College, Oxford and spent most of his working life with the National Farmers’ Union in the South West, championing the cause of the region’s farming community. His first book, 'Of Didcot and the Demon – The Cricketing Times of Alan Gibson', was the MCC and Cricket Society’s Cricket Book of the Year for 2009. He has followed this with two volumes exploring the landscapes that have inspired great writing: 'With Magic in my Eyes' about the south-western counties, 'The Coloured Counties' moving up into the heart of England.
