English Country Lanes is a lyrical celebration of the beauties of the lanes of the English countryside. Gareth Lovett Jones who has travelled through and photographed the lanes for over twenty years has produced in a perfect unity of text and black and white pictures the most comprehensive book on the lanes yet published.The emphasis throughout is on exploring by bicycle - 'pootling' in the words of the author - and the book rejects the stance of conventional guide books which lead the reader passively by the hand and replaces it with an exhortation to pioneering independence.
