Adele & Simon returns in a cross continental adventure that reflects the vitality of early twentieth- century America, from the Boston Public Garden to San Francisco's Chinatown. Stunning pen- and- ink - and water colour illustrations are filled with innumerable hidden treasures, and end papers featuring a period map of America extend the fun.
