This vintage book contains the record of a journey from London to the Quantock Hills - on a bicycle. A wonderful account of traveling around the majestic landscape of England, this is a book that will appeal to lovers of nature and travel writing, and is a veritable must-read for fans of Edward Thomas's beautiful work. The chapters of this volume include: In Search of Spring, The Start: London to Guildford, Guildford to Dunbridge, From Dunbridge over Salisbury Plain, Three Wessex Poets, Trowbridge to Shepton Mallet, Shepton Mallet to Bridgewater, Bridgewater to the Sea, et cetera. Many antiquarian books such as this are increasingly hard-to-come-by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition - complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

Autorenporträt
Philip Edward Thomas was a British author of poetry and prose. He is sometimes referred to as a war poet, despite the fact that few of his poems actually address his wartime experiences. He began composing poetry at the age of 36, although by then he had been a successful critic, historian, nature writer, and travel writer for two decades. He enlisted in the British Army in 1915 to fight in World War I and was killed in action during the Battle of Arras in 1917, shortly after arriving in France. Edward Thomas was the son of Mary Elizabeth Townsend and Philip Henry Thomas, a civil servant, writer, preacher, and local politician. He was born in Lambeth, south London, having previously lived in Surrey. He attended Belleville School, Battersea Grammar School, and St Paul's School, all in London. Thomas's family was predominantly Welsh. Of his six great-grandparents for whom information is available, five were born in Wales and one in Ilfracombe. All four of his grandparents had been born and raised in Wales. His paternal grandparents lived in Tredegar.
