Description - What to do in Oxford: An imagination tour of the City Centre by Alex Kerr
The future of adventure travel isn't in finding the last undiscovered place- it's in finding new ways to dive, heart and soul into the ancient beauty of civilisation that has been hiding in plain sight all along. Who better to teach you the subtle arts of going native and twisting the high life out of the glorious architecture, fascinating past and hidden wonders of Western Europe's most splendid cities, than a wanderlust historian with a joke up his sleeve and an eye for a free pass? Alex Kerr is spun from the glorious fabric of Oxford, UK: a passionate traveller, professional historian and delightful literary guide to show you all the secret wonders of civilisation, with a backpacker's budget but the tastes of a billionaire. After travelling for years across the America's and Europe he found himself enchanted with the town of Siracusa, Italy on the island of Sicily. Investing a year of passion to learn and write about the town, people, food, history and culture, his last book, 'Where should I stay in Sicily?' has sold across the globe. His next sizzling work cracks open the secrets of his beloved native Oxford City, taking you gently by the hand through the ancient, cobbled streets and yellow stone colleges, with a whisper and a wink. A jape and a freebie. A love of the history of its people, and a strong sense that as you tread the cool stone roads, between the spiralling ancient beauty of the architecture that abounds, like the backdrop of a magical novel, that you too are becoming part of the footsteps of history.
