Travels with Boogie by Mark Wallington
This is the Omnibus edition of Mark Wallington's two humour/travel classics featuring the much-loved Boogie. In "500 Mile Walkies", Mark and Boogie tackle Britains longest coastal footpath - from Somerset to Devon, from Cornwall to Dorset. ("The humorous travel book we've been waiting for" - "Daily Mail") In "Boogie Up The River", man and dog take to the water to trace the source of the Thames in a siff of the same vintage as "Three Men in a Boat". Boogie is flatulent, streetwise yet still lovable and Mark Wallington is the natural successor to Jerome K. Jerome.
Mark Wallington was born in Swanage in Dorset in 1953. He worked for a while as a gardener in London before becoming a scriptwriter and a journalist. In 1982 he walked the South West Coastal Path and his subsequent book, 500 Mile Walkies, became a bestseller. In 1992 Mark Wallington published his novel The Missing Postman and then wrote the script for the award-winning television play starring James Bolam. He is much sought-after as a film and television writer, working from his home in the High Peak in Derbyshire, where he keeps a truly wonderful garden. He is married with two children.
