Recenzii

Praise for the UK Edition of The Snow Tourist

"A thing of wonder and delight. A perfect winter book" —Metro

"Mr English is a polymath who wears his learning lightly. His book is a cracking read that deserves to be by the bedside of every keen skier or snowboarder" —The Economist

"The story of Mr English's feeling for snow makes a book as delicious as a double chocolate liegeois" —The Times

"English writes wonderfully" —The Daily Telegraph

"A far more intriguing account than much current travel literature. . .The places he visits are sometimes perilously cold, but English's account is touchingly warm" —The Guardian
