    About the Author

    Phil Lee was born and raised in Nottingham and he just couldn’t escape the clutches of his home city, returning after a spell as a merchant seaman in the Danish navy. He lives there still, very happily, and has carved out a varied career as a travel writer. One of his most recent books is 111 Places in Nottingham That You Shouldn’t Miss, published in 2024. Rachel Ghent was born in the North East of England, where she studied photography at the art college in Newcastle. After living in several regions of the UK she has finally settled near Nottingham, which is the first place she’s ever felt at home and it’s here you can find her sipping natural wine in Jam Café or tucking into Sunday lunch at The Angel Microbrewery.
