Absolute chaos, that's what.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eArmed with a questionable sense of direction and an unhealthy curiosity, Paul sets off from Yorkshire's east coast, somehow surviving his way to Lancashire-dodging rivers, fences, and a few angry farmers along the way.\u003cp\u003eBut this isn't just a scenic stroll. Along this invisible line, Paul stumbles upon murderers, film stars, and witches, and discovers what links York with Lancaster. He also answers many questions, such as what do aliens have to do with Victorian bridges? Why did a blind man build our roads? And who thought it would be a good idea to drop a nuclear bomb on them?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePacked with bizarre history, strange connections, and unexpected discoveries, this is a walk through England like you've never seen before-mainly because nobody in their right mind would attempt to do it. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePaul was born and raised in Hull, Yorkshire-a place so magnificent it took him years of globe-trotting to realize he should've just stayed put. After visiting some of the world's most exotic locations, he finally had an epiphany: nowhere beats the weird and wonderful charm of England. Now, he spends as much time as possible trudging around the country, uncovering its bizarre and fascinating history, and encountering a delightful mix of interesting, eccentric, and occasionally downright questionable people. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePaul has written several books about his hiking adventure, including \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eCoast to Coast: Finding Wainwright's England\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eHadrians Wall Walk\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eRambling on: Lost on the Cleveland Way\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eNorthbound on the West Highland Way\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Amess\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798674169994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/10\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.64d","brand":"Paul Amess","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49168403202303,"sku":"9798674169994","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/54-degrees-north-paul-amess-9798674169994","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
