The StorybookEngland.com <A HREF="http://www.storybookengland.com/credits.php" REL="nofollow">credits page</A> lists Wentz's book along with three others as its main sources. Looks like <A HREF="http://www.amazon.com/Once-Upon-Time-Great-Britain/dp/0312283385/" REL="nofollow">that book</A> and at least one more are available in the US. <BR/><BR/>The downside of a book compared to a website, of course, is that it's harder to update. And a website can offer direct links to the tourist sites and storybooks that it mentions. But it's a lot harder to carry a website in a car.J. L.

"Once Upon a Time in Great Britain" by Wentz is quite nice and gives information on the authors themselves, not just their works. <BR/><BR/>I found it at Bookcloseouts about a year ago, and would love to give it a proper workout with our three kids.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
