As mentioned in The Times Travel Book Club 2020\nAward winning writer Paul Theroux embarks on a journey that, though closer to home than most of his expeditions, uncovers some surprising truths about Britain and the British people in the '80s in The Kingdom by the Sea: A Journey Around the Coast of Great Britain. \nPaul Theroux's round-Britain travelogue is funny, perceptive and 'best avoided by patriots with high blood pressure...'\nAfter eleven years living as an American in London, Paul Theroux set out to travel clockwise round the coast and find out what Britain and the British are really like. It was 1982, the summer of the Falklands War, the ideal time, he found, to surprise the British into talking about themselves. The result makes superbly vivid and engaging reading.\n'A sharp and\n\nThe Kingdom by the Sea\nA Journey Around the Coast of Great Britain\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked services.\n;
