For Love of the British Isles

A charming, informative compilation of Nan Pendergrast’s observations and travel journals across seven decades, from her introduction to the world of upper-class British life just before World War II – and its involvement with the Nazi regime – to the ancient stone circle of Avebury in 1999, on the cusp of a new century. Through it all, Pendergrast displays a keen eye, a penchant for historical research, and an appreciation for all the people she meets along the way.
