In Kent, his chosen county and cradle of his genius, the pride in him is strongest, the houses and scenes most abounding; but it is possible to follow him to many other parts of the country and to find something of him in unassuming hotels and seaside inns, lonely churches and stately homes, places that knew him and can help to bring him to life for us. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eDickens's England\u003c\/i\u003e is a fascinating topographical study concentrating on what is still to be seen, rather than what has disappeared, and offers both immediate interest and enduring value for fans of the great author.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mollie Hardwick, Michael Hardwick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1800556012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781800556010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sapere Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/19\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.47d","brand":"Mollie Hardwick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44761228968191,"sku":"9781800556010","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6b95bff0-efe3-4d0a-ad7e-ef29671af84c.jpg?v=1706680741","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dickenss-england-mollie-hardwick-9781800556010","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
