Paperback. Condition: New. 'Theirs was a pre-urban world in the glow of its last sunset, without a care or doubt, in which it seemed as if nothing could ever come to harm. Here was their version of that ideal world that has haunted the dreamer, rebel and pastoral poet for centuries.'Between 1850 and 1939 such well-known writers…as Rudyard Kipling, Virginia Woolf and Richard Jefferies came to Sussex, a county already home to the likes of Wilfrid Blunt, Hilaire Belloc and others. The result was an explosion of literary creativity which rejected modernity and the London scene, and instead developed writing imbued with a sense of nature and landscape.In this, his last book, Peter Brandon (1927-2011) has drawn on his vast knowledge of the Sussex landscape to show how such writers, seeking a foil to London, were inspired by their surroundings and found peace and a tranquillity which existed in few other places.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A groundbreaking work, demonstrating the links between writers and landscapes in an age of urbanisation and conflict, 1850-1939. The Sussex landscape is here celebrated by writers and poets, both famous and lesser-known, as we trace their search for rural peace and beauty in the tumultuous y…ears 1850 to 1939. For the first time we trace the corpus of Sussex writing which was connected to those wider events but was equally a hymn of praise to rural Sussex, seen as nourishing, sympathetic and, for some, a retreat from the stresses of burgeoning city life or the horrors of mechanised warfare. We meet Wilfred Blunt and learn of his love for his Wealden countryside; we encounter the complex Hilaire Belloc; the acute observations of Richard Jefferies and Rudyard Kipling; and the modernity of Virginia Woolf. Lesser-known writers are included too, such as Charles Dalmon or Dr Habberton Lulham, who loved spending time with the downland shepherds or with travelling folk among the byways of the county. AUTHOR: The late Peter Brandon was a prolific author of books about Sussex, and a knowledgeable and inspirational speaker. He inspired many landscape geographers and historians, residents and visitors with his natural enthusiasm for his beloved Sussex countryside. He was vice-president of the Sussex branch of the Campaign to Protect Rural England and of the Sussex Archaeological Society, and president of the South Downs Society. 64 colour, 35 b/w illustrations A groundbreaking work, demonstrating the links between writers and landscapes in an age of urbanisation and conflict, 1850-1939 Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: N/A. First Paperback Edition. black titles spine; N.B. - this book is for sale only with it's companion volume -"South-East to AD 1000" (the books are priced individually); one of the 'A Regional History of England' series; front cover illust. shows oasthouses at Sissinghur…st, Kent; illustrated throughout with maps, diagrams and half-tones; "In this volume, Peter Brandon and Brian Short examine the history of the people who have lived in the South East of England - in practice the modem counties of Surrey, Kent, East and West Sussex and Greater London south of the Thames - from late Anglo-Saxon times to the present. Although London itself is not given separate treatment in this series, its growing influence on settlement, transport, economy and society in even the most distant comets of the South East is, inevitably, one of the major features of the book. The authors have two principal concerns: to describe the development of the community across this thousand-year span; and to examine the changes to the physical setting in which it takes place. Landscape and society are thus given equal emphasis throughout. The authors pay due attention to the great historical events that have had an impact on the region - wars, plagues, technological change and socio-cultural trends amongst them - but they are also at pains to stress the underlying continuity of rural and urban life. As well as .exploring the interaction of economic, social and landscape history, Peter Brandon and Brian Short also acknowledge the cultural dimension of the ordinary lives they are describing: they show how people themselves became increasingly aware of their environment, and how the landscape has in its turn influenced the art and literature of those who live within it. But the picture is not one of unclouded progress. The authors identify the South East today as one of the problem regions of the developed world, with dense settlement, severe competition for land, and the accelerating erosion of what countryside remains. One of the strongest features of this admirable book is the attention it gives to explaining such contemporary problems through an understanding of their historical origins. The authors move with equal confidence from remote hamlets in the Sussex Downs to the crowded tenements of Lambeth, from prosperous market towns like Ashford, Guildford and Tonbridge to the avenues, crescents and closes of South London's suburbia. All have made their distinctive contribution to the South East as it is today, and all find their appropriate place in this splendidly readable survey."; including index & bibliography - 444 pages. N.B. together these two books, with protective wrapping, weigh well above the 1kg. standard quoted rate for post & packing so extra shipping charges will be requested.
