Books by Tony Whitehead

Follow mythogeographer Phil Smith, photographer John Schott and ornithorgrapher Tony Whitehead, in words and pictures, on an imagined pilgrimage through a real but extraordinary landscape. Over the course of the 19-day Armchair Pilgrimage, we experience the world around us just as they did as they walked - finding our own destination.

Mike Leigh may well be Britain's greatest living film director; his worldview has permeated our national consciousness. Written with the co-operation of Leigh himself, this book gives detailed readings of the nine feature films he has made for the cinema, as well as an overview of his work for television.
