by Rob Talbot (Author), Robin Whiteman (Author)
The region of East Anglia lies on the eastern coast, between the Thames estuary in the south and the Wash in the north, encompassing the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Cambridgeshire and the southern parts of Lincolnshire. The level land is dominated by water: a network of rivers, stretches of coastal marshland and expanses of fens and broads, and the boundless expanses of sky served as inspiration to one of England's finest artists, John Constable. Surprisingly, it is one of the less well known areas of the British Isles but Talbot and Whiteman have teamed up again to produce an indispensable guide to the area and a book that brings the region to life with 130 colour photographs and a thoughtful narrative that explores its history, people and legends.
