Description
Slow Trains to Venice: A 4,000-Mile Adventure Across Europe by Tom Chesshyre. Embark on a meandering rail journey across Europe with author Tom Chesshyre. Escaping the daily routine for several happy weeks, he travels from London to Venice, following the tracks as they wind through France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Ukraine, Hungary, the Balkans and Austria. With no set plans, just a desire to let the trains lead the way, Chesshyre encounters fellow travellers and conductors along the route. This is a love letter to Europe, written from the trackside. The result is a charming account of his adventures, full of character and insight into the people he meets and the places he visits.
