Inhaltsangabe:

Rightfully called "the garden of England," the county of Kent can boast of an impressive seacoast bordered by cliffs, small towns of infinite charm, and naturally rich and fertile soil in which greenery flourishes. Combining the best a guidebook has to offer with a history of how the region developed, a born-and-bred Kentishman relates a fascinating tale of a place filled with character and spirit. Breathtaking photographs show majestic landscapes, churches, manors, and farms, and nature at its wildest. 160 pages, 65 color illus., 51 b/w illus., 7 9/16 x 10 3/8.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Nigel Nicolson is the son of the politician, diarist and biographer Harold Nicolson, and the poet and writer Vita Sackville-West who restored Sissinghurst Castle in Kent, now a property of the National Trust. The family were close friends with Virginia and Leonard Woolf. Nicolson was the co-founder of Weidenfeld & Nicolson, was a Conservative MP in the 1950s and is the author of fifteen previous books.
