This book, first published by the AA School in 2016, appears in the form of a latter-day Baedeker. But rather than a pragmatic itinerary, its content offers an eclectic and idiosyncratic list of assorted reasons to head south, richly illustrated by Wilson's own drawings and watercolors"-- Provided by publisher
