About this listen

Eighteen years ago, Joe Bennett left England for a holiday. Now he’s come back. But how is the England of his memory different from the England of the motorway? Identikit high streets, New Labour, chicken tikka - things aren’t what they used to be. But the longer Joe travels, the more he wonders whether things were ever what they used to be. Even a century ago, H. V. Morton, the nation’s most celebrated eulogiser, was In Search of England. Criss-crossing the country with varying degrees of enthusiasm, Joe Bennett establishes himself as one of our most engaging travel writers.

PUBLISHER’S NOTE: This Audio Book contains some explicit scenes/language.

This guy is that cranky old fart at the dinner table who hates everyone and every thing with a superiority matched only by his ignorance. Don’t bother. Read Bill Bryson if you want an entertaining trip around England.

Racist, sexist, classist and generally nasty

Dull, boring and needlessly vulgar. I was really looking forward to something clever and entertaining - but I very disappointed.

Not worth the money

This book is like being stuck in a car with your grumpy grandfather and the doors wont open and its hot. If I wanted to hear someone complain all day I shouldn't have to pay for that. The author is the most depressing person I have read. Nothing but negative and boring commentary about the worlds worst car trip. I want my money back ....

Actually, must grumble about this book.....
