[edit] Works
Boogaart is the author of the book A272 - An Ode to a Road, which covers the road itself as well as everything within a twenty mile radius. It was described by the John Sandoe Bookshop as "the most eccentric and fascinating guidebook we have ever seen!"
Although the text has remained relatively obscure to most, in many places it has gathered a cult following, to the extent that a TV series may be created. The text was also chosen for study in English A-Levels in 2006.
