A lyrical history of England's greatest county.
''Restless, poetic, strange ... and the territory it describes deserves nothing less'' Observer
''Glittering and energetic'' Country Life
Yorkshire is ''a continent unto itself'', a region where mountain, plain, coast, downs, fen and heath lie close. By weaving history, family stories, travelogue and ecology, Richard Morris reveals how Yorkshire took shape as a landscape and in literature, legend and popular regard. The result is a fascinating and wide-ranging meditation on Yorkshire and Yorkshireness, told through the prism of the region''s most extraordinary people and places.
