About the book
In 2018, Jonathan and Jackie Thomas, the American founders of the world’s largest website dedicated to British travel, history, and culture, Anglotopia.net, set off on their biggest adventure yet as they drove from Land’s End to John o’Groats (aka LeJog), ticking off the top item on their ‘Great British Bucket List.’
End to End is a new exploration of Britain from the windswept coast of Cornwall to the northern reaches of the Scottish highlands. Along the way, they explore stately homes, ruins, castles, the Queen’s private yacht, unique attractions, a bookshop or two, and even a motorway rest stop! Jonathan writes from an outsider’s perspective who has a lifelong affection for all things British (yes, even for motorway services!).
Along the way, they encounter fascinating historical characters, experience unexpected places, and discover the true spirit of adventure as they get to know Britain in a way they’ve never experienced.
The journey also serves as a personal pilgrimage for the couple as they reflect on their lives, their passions, and their love for each other — a window into the fascinating culture of the British, and the magic of the UK like never before.
