Walking with Dickens: 10 walks
When Charles Dickens was a boy, his father took him on countless walks and opened his eyes to fields, streets, houses and people. Throughout his life he reached back to these sources of inspiration. In the walks described in this book the reader encounters the writer on the locations of novels such as David Copperfield, Great Expectations and Little Dorrit. Sometime
s his shadow seems hidden behind urban renewal. But still his spirit lingers over marshland, cliffs and draughts of beer. For every walk duration, transportation, refreshments and extra information are given. Walking directions are clear and supplemented by maps to be used in combination with Ordnance Survey maps.
