About The Author | Lewis Baston has written on British politics and the electoral landscape for more than thirty years, from polling analysis for the Financial Times to election results analysis for the Guardian. From 2003 to 2010 he was Research Director for the Electoral Reform Society, and from 2011 to 2015 he was Research Fellow at Democratic Audit. He has appeared on BBC Breakfast, The One Show and Sunday Politics, Radio 4's PM and The World Tonight, and on Tim Marshall's series about borderlands for The Compass. |
His great strength is his ability to bring everything alive through his description of the places he goes and the people he meets… Baston's writing is beautiful, and it is combined with a sense of humour and a genuine love and interest for the border regions he visits. But what makes Borderlines a true gem is his ability to connect the history of these borderlands to the people who lives there over the centuries and the people who live there now…[Baston's] unique take on human nature through the history and heritage of the borderlands ends up being deeply moving. |
