Book excerpt: Kent is a county of superlatives. The second largest county in England, with the highest population (currently 1.6m), it has more listed buildings and sites of archaeological interest - including eighteen castles - than any other, and boasts the longest coastline, which inspiredTurner to some of his greatest works of art. Despite its plethora of military sites, motorways, airports and - in Bluewater - the largest shopping mall in Europe, not for nothing has Kent long been known as the "Garden of England" for the glory of its countryside. Andreas Byrne has been inspired by his native county to produce a masterly view of Kent in all its moods. From the golden sands of Margate to the dramatic white cliffs at Dover, and from calm over the marshes to stormy winter skies over the shingle beaches of Dungeness. Inland, he captures the atmosphere of the countryside from the North Downs with their rolling chalk hills to the woodlands of theWeald, and in between evocative country churches in cornfields and iconic oast houses under wispy blue skies. Portrait of Kent is a visual feast and a worthy celebration of this most characterful corner of England.

Download or read book The Kent Coast (Classic Reprint) written by Arthur D. Lewis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-05 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kent Coast The author, when last he visited Kent, went all round the coast on foot, and has indicated in this volume exactly where not too comfortable shingly or marshy tracts will be found, where the road is by the sea, and where a footpath must be followed. The coast can be kept to everywhere if the tourist does not object to a little rough walking. The pedestrian, cyclist, or motorist, unless he is exceptionally romantic (or foolish, may I say?) and likes to lose himself, will probably prefer to carry a map, and the Ordnance Survey publications are the most convenient. One mile to an inch will suit the pedestrian, and two miles to an inch the cyclist or motorist - perhaps even four miles to an inch will be sufficiently detailed for the latter. The man who wishes conscientiously to explore everything should get a large scale map and also more detailed maps on the scale of one mile to an inch.

Download or read book N by E written by Rockwell Kent and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 1996-07-26 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classic tale of seafaring, shipwreck, and survival, reprinted from Wesleyan University Press's 1978 facsimile of the original. When artist, illustrator, writer, and adventurer Rockwell Kent first published N by E in a limited edition in 1930, his account of a voyage on a 33-foot cutter from New York Harbor to the rugged shores of Greenland quickly became a collectors' item. Little wonder, for readers are immediately drawn to Kent's vivid descriptions of the experience; we share "the feeling of wind and wet and cold, of lifting seas and steep descents, of rolling over as the wind gusts hit," and the sound "of wind in the shrouds, of hard spray flung on a drum-tight canvas, of rushing water at the scuppers, of the gale shearing a tormented sea." When the ship sinks in a storm-swept fjord within 50 miles of its destination, the story turns to the stranding and subsequent rescue of the three-man crew, salvage of the vessel, and life among native Greenlanders. Magnificently illustrated by Kent's wood-block prints and narrated in his poetic and highly entertaining style, this tale of the perils of killer nor'easters, treacherous icebergs, and impenetrable fog—and the joys of sperm whales breaching or dawn unmasking a longed-for landfall—is a rare treat for old salts and landlubbers alike.

Book Synopsis All The Devils Are Here by : David Seabrook
Download or read book All The Devils Are Here written by David Seabrook and published by Granta Books. This book was released on 2014-07-03 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty years ago, in a series of mysterious, incandescent writings, David Seabrook told of the places he knew best: the declining resort towns of the Kent coast. The pieces were no advert for the local tourist board. Here, the ghosts of murderers and mad artists crawl the streets. Septuagenarian rent boys recall the good old days and Carry On stars go to seed. Clandestine fascist networks emerge. And all the time, there is Seabrook himself - desperate perhaps, and in danger. Dark, strange and immediate, this is a classic work of sui generis British literature. There are devils here, and the reader will remember them.

Book excerpt: From the author of Burial Rites, "a literary novel with the pace and tension of a thriller that takes us on a frightening journey towards an unspeakable tragedy" (Paula Hawkins, bestselling author of The Girl on the Train and Into the Water). Based on true events in nineteenth century Ireland, Hannah Kent's startling new novel tells the story of three women, drawn together to rescue a child from a superstitious community. Nora, bereft after the death of her husband, finds herself alone and caring for her grandson Micheal, who can neither speak nor walk. A handmaid, Mary, arrives to help Nora just as rumors begin to spread that Micheal is a changeling child who is bringing bad luck to the valley. Determined to banish evil, Nora and Mary enlist the help of Nance, an elderly wanderer who understands the magic of the old ways. Set in a lost world bound by its own laws, The Good People is Hannah Kent's startling new novel about absolute belief and devoted love. Terrifying, thrilling and moving in equal measure, this follow-up to Burial Rites shows an author at the height of her powers.
