'A cultural historian with a touch of the Betjemans and a lick of the Meades about him' Monocle magazine 'A fascinating, informative, revelatory book' William Boyd, Guardian on A Walk in the Park 'Travis Elborough is becoming a latter-day Alan Bennett. Let loose in an array of reference libraries, he summons many a curious fact ... from the shelves, which makes for a rich narrative ... Alluring detail fills every page' Christopher Hawtree, Spectator on A Walk in the Park
Acclaimed by the Guardian as 'one of the country's finest pop culture historians', Travis Elborough has been a freelance writer, author, broadcaster and cultural commentator for nearly two decades. Elborough's books include Wish You Were Here: England on Sea, The Long-Player Goodbye, a hymn to vinyl records that inspired the BBC4 documentary When Albums Ruled the World, in which he also appeared, and A Walk in the Park, a loving exploration of public parks and green space. Elborough regularly appears on Radio 4 and recently wrote and presented the five-part series, The Rise and Fall of the Antique, and is a frequent contributor to the Guardian and Observer, among other newspapers and magazines.
