A Fine Romance
Susan Branch's newest book, "A FINE ROMANCE ~ Falling in love with the English Countryside" is a hand-written and watercolored personal travel journal of Susan's six-day transatlantic crossing on the Queen Mary 2 and two-month ramble through hedgerows, tearooms, and wildflower meadows touring the castles and cottages of rural England. There are over 300 full color photos, countless illustrations, quotes, and even a few recipes; it's a travel guide that includes book and movie lists and watercolored maps. Susan added an interactive Appendix available on her website that includes links to travel-everything, and videos she took while on the trip. (You can virtually drive across the Yorkshire Dales, visit Rosemary Verey's garden, step out on deck of the Queen Mary II in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.) Travel with Susan as she braves the North Atlantic ... and visits the homes and gardens of her literary and artistic heroes including Beatrix Potter, Vanessa Bell and Jane Austen. With lots of history, the Queen's Jubilee, and a touching love story to kick things off, it's a perfect book for all Downton Abbey Anglophiles and armchair travelers.
