Hidden in the countryside within a few hours drive from London charming, historically rich, architecturally opulent villages beg to be explored. The selective traveler, who wants more than a typical sightseeing experience, will find this easy-to-pack-and- carry volume informative, educational and culturally enriching. It features pastoral villages nestled in the fertile fields of Hampshire, delves into the history and ancient mysteries of Wiltshire, and reveals Gloucestershire's less visited Cotswold jewels. An English Experience is a collection of fifteen descriptive pieces of writing. Each chapter is divided into four sections:

" The Tale details an original story about a chosen site - an ancient church, pub, stately home, local point of interest, person or tradition associated with a specific village.

" The Village Today is a vivid portrait of sites to see and places to visit that relate to "the tale."

" Finding Your Way offers driving directions to the village and specifies major roadways and smaller routes.

" Nearby Places of Interest invites readers to expand their travel horizons and visit other attractions near the destination village.

"Hansen heads off the beaten path in search of new travel experiences in the English countryside. … Narrated at a leisurely pace, this exploration of three predominantly rural regions provides a new twist to the traditional English itinerary. This charming travelogue will appeal to both novice wayfarers and dedicated Anglophiles."
