England is replete with beautiful, stunning and serene landscapes overlaying a history and heritage that bubbles up to the surface almost everywhere you go. In an attempt to get an overall w of this amazing country without settling for too many blurred images through a car window and without the time for a detailed exploration on foot, Pat Lunt opts for an alternative transport choice-the bus. What delights and treasures can be discovered in the places ited by randomly selected timetabled service buses? Is it possible to simply step off a bus and find yourself in a village where they held the captured French Admiral from the Battle of Trafalgar? Could a bus journey get you to the highest inland cliffs in England or to a mysterious megalithic monument? Can you really wake up in a campsite in Gloucestershire and get all the way to a coastal resort in south Somerset in time for a good night's sleep, by using buses? Wouldn't travelling by bus simply take ages and cost you an arm and a leg? Pat Lunt decided to attempt answering these and many other questions in a month-long odyssey to the four corners of the country. On the way he finds himself in vibrant urban centres, quaint country villages and bustling seaside resorts; traversing National Parks, post-industrial landscapes and the M5. Without really trying, his haphazard progress leads him to stumble upon the haunts of kings, queens, inventors, smugglers and marauding Danes. He also discovers that travelling by bus is, after all is said and done, pretty good fun.
