COUNTRY BASED NOVELS
English literature has a long, established
and famed history. We list only some of
the more commonly known titles. This is
by no means comprehensive and we welcome
your suggestions for other titles.
BIOGRAPHIES OF
TRAVELLERS Distant
Voices - John Pilger (Peter Lane, Australia) The
Journals of Dan Eldon - Dan Eldon (Antony
Riley, England)
Dan Eldon was a photojournalist killed in
action in Africa while working for Reuters.
This book was compiled by his father after
his death, using the journals that Dan filled
during his life. These are a collage of
photos, quote, stories and diary entries.
Dan was only young when he started working
for Reuters and did more in his short life
time (he was killed at 22 and would have
been 32 today) than many of us would hope
to achieve ever. This man was a philosopher,
a poet and a traveller.
