Riassunto

Slow is a new series from Bradt that encourages visitors to slow down and savor the best of Britain’s rural destinations. The series’ three launch titles are Slow Devon, Slow Norfolk & Suffolk, and Slow Yorkshire. Each is written by an author resident to the area, and delves into unsung delights and personal favorites not covered by other guidebooks, from conservation projects to boat trips, wildlife holidays, restaurants using locally sourced ingredients and scenic walks. The series is published in conjunction with Alastair Sawday, whose book Go Slow England is drawn from a nationwide database of restaurants, accommodation providers and other businesses.

Recensione:

'Devon, Dorset and Somerset's artisan food producers and rural craftsmen are some of the best in the UK... and therefore the world. You'd be mad to come to this part of the country and not take full advantage.  Slow guides take time to point the way.' --Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall

'Visit Devon is so pleased that Bradt Travel Guides have chosen to release their Slow Devon and Exmoor guide. This is a wonderful publication showcasing all the fantastic attributes of Devon - with a million and one reasons to visit! We hope that this guide will not only encourage people to visit, but that it will also enhance their experience whilst here in the county.' --Visit Devon

'It's a real pleasure to see England written about as if it's an exotic secret, but don't be misled by "slow", because here are hikes, bikes and canoes aplenty, together with expedition for twitchers and addicts of local history. I especially enjoyed the first-hand contributions from random folk, such as the manager of Totnes bookshop and a woman recalling the wartime lav at Harland Point station.' --Nicholas Crane, BBC Country File
