"Fascinating, vibrant, and overwhelmingly powerful, this is a unique look at England in its magical and rebellious glory ... A LoveReading Star book, England on Fire is truly beautiful, its astute, inclusive, and absolutely magical." - Liz Robinson, LoveReading.co.uk "Ellcock resurfaces the work of a wide range of artists, from overlooked 19th century printmakers to female surrealists. In the place of sedentary lords and ladies, he offers saturnalia. In the place of haywains; standing stones, the Cottingley fairies and scenes from anti-fascist marches." - India Bourke, New Statesman
"England On Fire will change the way you see England, not for showing anything new, but for showing you what has been there all along." - Thomas Overlook, Exquisite Terror
"not just mind blowing, but mind defining approaching the heights of epiphanic beauty ... This deep, wild England also contains the euphoria of possibility therein lies the importance and joy of this book, the pages of which mingle with our dreams." - Richard Cabut, International Times
"England on Fire is definitely thought-provoking. As you flick through the pages, you really do get a sense of the subconscious and often poignant undercurrent of England's 'jousting and days out' heritage." - Love British History
"A fantastical wander through English art, customs and rituals [ ...] an insightful visual map of a strange and fascinating world." Sinéad Gleeson
