The Making of the English Landscape

by W.G. Hoskins

Classic study of how the English built their landscape.

The Making of the English Landscape

W.G. Hoskins's The Making of the English Landscape is rightly regarded as a classic. He describes how the English landscape as we see it today was determined by, and is a record of, our long and complex history. It's a fascinating read.

If I have one complaint, it is that, on the whole, Hoskins places far more emphasis on southern England than elsewhere. Even so, the book is highly recommended.
