This beautifully illustrated book is a celebration of Ellis Peter's Shropshire and the world of the medieval sleuth she has created in Brother Cadfael.Robin Whiteman's meticulous and authoritative text,complemented by Rob Talbot's timeless photographs,creates an impression of the Shropshire landscape as it would have once appeared to Brother Cadfael as he travelled its desolate moorlands,dense forests and hidden valleys.
From Salop (Shrewsbury) and the Stiperstones to the remote hills of Clun Forest,from Offa's Dyke to the Devil's Chair,'CADFAEL COUNTRY' - based on the bestselling Chronicles of Brother Cadfael - is an enthralling pilgrimage through this wild and fascinating border county.
Informative and comprehensive,it is a must for all fans of Ellis Peters and for those who love the region.
