Book excerpt: This is the 3rd edition of The Hidden Places of England. It is one of a series that covers the whole of the United Kingdom and is now printed in full colour providing the reader with a more scenic and pleasurable view of the hidden gems of this beautiful country.

The national guides are enjoyed by a large readership. 'I am very pleased with the Hidden Places of Englan
