A tour of twenty-first century Britain in all its shin-kicking, bog-snorkelling and cheese-rolling glory, this is a uniquely British travel book.
Raised on a ranch in Colorado, J. R. Daeschner worked for the New York Times after university, then on Fleet Street and Wall Street, with stints in Mexico and Peru before settling in Britain. Now 34, he has lived and worked as a journalist in the UK for the past decade. His work has been published on both sides of the Atlantic, including The Times and the International Herald Tribune.
