Byways of Warwickshire

Warwickshire is famed far and wide throughout the world for Stratford upon Avon and the Shakespeare connection. In this book, however, Alan Tyers has eschewed the usual tourist images and views of stately homes to focus on the lesser known villages and byways of the county.

His travels have taken him from North Warwickshire with its industrial heritage to South Warwickshire with its rising hills, broad leafed woodland and sleepy hamlets. As a resident of Leamington, the author has uncovered several unusual views of Warwick and Leamington, but most of the illustrations feature some forty small settlements and villages with their churches, cottages, farms, rivers and canals which together represent the heart of England.

Byways of Warwickshire is an unusual photographic collection which will appeal to all who appreciate and value the quintessential Warwickshire.
