Crowl, an American who takes nothing for granted when traveling and exploring Britain, has a unique approach that enables the reader to relate the things seen to their historical background. The first part of his book is a comprehensive narrative history from prehistoric times to the present, told primarily in terms of what he calls "the visible and visitable remains". And he has elaborate cross-referencing so any monument in the historical section can be immediately found in the second part of the book, the Gazetteer, and vice-versa. In the Gazetteer, he organizes the sites by geographical region and evaluates the merits of each as an attraction and as it appears today.
