Cooper's The Literary Guide and Companion to Southern England has been popular with travellers since 1986.This, the second guide in a series of three, brings all Cooper's delight and enthusiasm to the literary sites of Middle England.
The second of three volumes, written before Cooper died, and (like the third) prepared for publication by his widow, this book presents a tour guide of 14 counties in the middle of Cooper's native England, discussing local literary figures, and pointing out their real or fictional homes, pubs, and other places of interest.
