Good guide to the area and its development
Like the other books in this series this one takes you through the development of the landscape of East Anglia examining how geology, history, politics and man have helped to form it. It is the sort of book you can read from cover to cover and feel at the end that you have a well informed understanding of why the area is as it is. Well illustrated and informative.
