About this product

Product Information

A hilarious journey in search of the real North, northerners and northernness, from the bestselling author of Cider With Roadies A Northerner in exile, Stuart Maconie goes on a journey in search of the North, attempting to discover where the cliches end and the truth begins. He travels from Wigan Pier to Blackpool Tower and Newcastle's Bigg Market to the Lake District to find his own Northern Soul, encountering along the way an exotic cast of chippy Scousers, pie-eating woollybacks, topless Geordies, mad-for-it Mancs, Yorkshire nationalists and brothers in southern exile.

  • Interesting!

    This is a light hearted, humorous but nevertheless sensible look at the north/south divide. Having just moved from the south to the north,it’s a good read.
