He was a genuinely great Briton, beloved by millions. John''s unique voice and sensibility were evident in everything he did, and nowhere is that more true than in these pages.<br><br><i>Margrave of the Marshes</i> is the astonishing book John Peel began to write before his untimely death in October 2004, completed by the woman who knew him best, his wife Sheila.
