The crown jewels of England : 100 places that make Britain great / Clive Aslet.

London : Constable, 2020.

320 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm

What would you save if your house was on fire? It's a question we have all been asked time and again - a parlour game that we are all familiar with. But what if it wasn't your home but Britain that was on fire, and the treasures to choose from the miraculous buildings, places and landscapes our unique nation has to offer? In this celebration of the wonders of our fair and fertile land, Clive Aslet takes us on a journey across the nation to marvel at 100 sites of great importance and beauty. From unique foliage in Wales and the stunning Dorset landscape, to the famous White Cliffs of Dover and the abundance of cathedrals in London, Aslet lovingly captures the magic of the places and buildings that underpin our national identity.
