Massingham connects great writers to the places where they drew inspiration. The first two chapters cover Shakespeare of Warwickshire and Jane Austen of Hampshire. Other chapters include Flax Farmers of the West, Saxons of Sussex, Ireson of Stamford, St. Peter of Abbotsbury, with 13 chapters total. Along the way much history is revealed, interesting because it is not the kind of history one finds in history books. Jacket is price-clipped but otherwise intact, a little soiled, in mylar. Cloth cover with signs of past moisture. Collins. London. 1946. Hb, Dj. USED. $9.00
