Ian Vince

Non-fictional character

Thanks for stopping by my web site. I am a writer specialising in narrative non-fiction, travel and humour books. I am also an erstwhile columnist for The Daily Telegraph, a contributor to the Guardian, the Radio Times, BBC Countryfile Magazine among others, as well as radio and television sketch shows.

My latest book, The Lie of the Land, was published recently by Macmillan and, to support it, I have set up an organisation that celebrates the exotic delights of the UK’s countryside: The British Landscape Club. To order the book on Amazon go here or to get signed copies direct from me, click here.

Before The Lie of the Land the last book, Three Men in a Float, a tale of an epic journey across England in a 1958 milk float, with a maximum speed of 15mph (somewhat slower than a bee), was written with Dan Kieran and has been out for a while now. For more information, photos and videos from the trip, go to www.threemeninafloat.com

I have written three other books – Britain: What A State (2005), The Myway Code (2006) and The Little Black Book of Red Tape (2007). Britain: What A State, my first book, which was itself based on a website, still has an occasionally updated web presence (details on right), from where you can download the ebook for free.
