Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Plan a trip!! Go armchair travelling! Use as a reference.
Review: Charmingly written as if the author is sharing tea with the reader. So whether you actually head to Christie's England or stay in your comfy armchair, this is a nice way to bring literature to life. Actual locations from Christie's stories are pinpointed. Explanations are provided for some aspects of British life that have Americans puzzled. One could really explore London or Harrogate or other Christie places with the assistance of addresses and phone numbers included. Maps provided are okay for the armchair traveller. Towns and villages outside of London are given as much attention as suggestions in the city. I can't wait to ride the Orient Express myself!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: favorable press reviews
Review: This book received favorable reviews in the travel section of several major newspapers in the U.S. and in England: The New York Times, the Chicago Tribune, the Wall Street Journal, a number of regional newspapers and best of all, in the Sunday Times of London.
