Author Description

Are you fed up with conventional guides that promise you everything but tell you nothing? A Guide to Devon and Devon's World aims to provide you with insight into the region, as well as its connections to other parts of the world. Focusing on the notable and notorious, the guide tells the stories of the famous individuals who lived, played, and wrote in the county. This book gives you the insights into the parts of Devon that traditional guides do not have, as well as the corners of the globe where Devonians have left their mark. Completely revised, this updated edition also includes a new chapter on the life of Captain Scott. An independent researcher, Peter's other books include The Departure and Magnificent Milford Sound.
