Description

Mark Steel's In Town explores the quirks of small-town life in Britain, celebrating the unique character of places that are often overlooked in favour of homogenised high streets.

The author's observations on these small towns go to the heart of British culture today, championing the people who shape the places we live in. From the drizzly streets of Scunthorpe to the lively town centres of Skipton and Keighley, Steel reveals the elements that make each town distinct and worth visiting.

By stripping away the veneer of uniformity, Steel shows how Britain's diversity is still thriving, with local interest and eccentricity becoming a defiant expression of community spirit. This book is a celebration of the people and places that make Britain so magnificently diverse.
