Tennis Whites And Teacakes Av John Betjeman, Stephen Games

<i>Tennis Whites and Teacakes</i> brings together the best of Betjeman''s poetry, private letters, journalism and musings to present a fully rounded picture of what he stood for. From his arguments for new steel buildings to his amusement about the etiquette of village teashops, it reveals Betjeman not just as a sentimentalist but as a passionate observer with a wonderful sense of humour and an acute eye.
