The Kingdom by the Sea: A Journey Around Great Britain
The Kingdom by the Sea A Journey Around Great Britain
Author: Paul Theroux
It was 1982, the summer of the Falkland Islands War, and the birth of the royal heir, Prince William -- and the ideal time, Theroux found, to surprise the British into talking about themselves. The result is a candid, funny, perceptive, and opinionated travelogue of his journey and his findings.

I read this book both before and after I was lucky enough to spend some time in the British Isles. It was a great way to think about places to see and a wonderful reminder of the fun we had.
