Product Description

Villages are the very embodiment of Englishness. The village inn and the local farm, great houses, humble cottages and beautiful country gardens speak of a way of life that has developed peacefully since Anglo-Saxon times. A few days spent in Englands idyllic villages offers urban dwellers and foreign visitors a revitalizing glimpse of a more tranquil existence, full of history, legend, literature and artistic heritage. The beauty and diversity of the English village are recorded in this book in absorbing commentary and magnificent photography by James Bentley and Hugh Palmer.

"The Most Beautiful Villages of England" and "Picture Perfect English Villages (The Most Beautiful...)" are the same books, just different titles. :-(

By K. L. Wren HALL OF FAME TOP 50 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
A carefully chosen selection of some of England's most attractive villages, invariably quaint and always strikingly captured in this beautiful collection of photographs interspersed with a short commentary.

This is the perfect book for lovers of traditional English villages and photography. It lives up to its name and will not disappoint.
