For those who are familiar with the Peter Maughan's books about the borderlands of England and Wales this will be a delightful supplement. This is not a novel, but a series of lyrically written tableaus written to highlight that ever present, but unnamed character of his Batch Magna novels which is the countryside itself. Expertly and lovingly described at various points throughout the year as only someone who intimately knows the area is able to achieve it presents the area in all of its glory. This book will whet your appetite to visit the borderlands of England and Wales.
