As staff travel writer on The Times since 1997, Tom Chesshyre had visited over 80 countries and wondered: what is left to be discovered? He realised that the answer might be very close to home. In a mad adventure that took him from Hull to Hell (actually a rather nice place in the Isles of Scilly), Tom visited secret spots of Unsung Britain in search of its least touristy destinations. He explored Blade Runner Britain in Port Talbot, found everything's quite green in Milton Keynes, met real-life superheroes and watched a football match with celebrity chef Delia Smith in Norwich. Tom reveals the unfashionable underbelly of Britain, and embraces it all with the spirit of discovery. AUTHOR: Tom Chesshyre is based in London and is the author of 'How Low Can You Go?: Round Europe for 1p Each Way (Plus Tax)', which sold over 10,000 copies. Currently staff travel writer for The Times, he has worked for Sky Sports and The Daily Telegraph and writes frequently for The Mail on Sunday. REVIEWS: Praise for How Low Can You Go?: "Fasten your seatbelts, it's a wonderful ride" - THE MAIL ON SUNDAY "...a hilarious record of a low-cost odyssey" - Celia Brayfield, THE TIMES
