A timeless classic, JB Priestley's 'English Journey' is a scathing account of the social problems and democratic shortcomings of the country in the 1930s. Moreover, it both captured and catalysed the public mood. But it's more than this. It's a love letter, albeit an exasperated one, to an England that Priestley loves and yet finds unfathomable. Stuart Maconie has often expressed the same passions and puzzlement. Now, 90 years on, he intends to take an English Journey of his own, with Priestley's thirties itinerary as guide.
