自从马格南摄影师马丁·帕尔开始摄影以来，英格兰一直是他作品的一个关键主题。《审视英格兰》是一本关于英格兰身份认同的滑稽、固执己见、深情讽刺、色彩丰富的摄影随笔。 随着苏格兰和威尔士巩固了他们作为国家的地位，而大不列颠开始瓦解，这本新书为“作为英格兰人意味着什么”的辩论做出了贡献。帕尔本人是典型的英格兰人，他作为一名摄影师的伟大成就在于，他有能力将明显的事物转化为令人惊讶的事物，将英国性的陈词滥调重塑为挑衅性的启示。显而易见，他对英格兰的巡视包括阿斯科特和慈善商店、海滨度假胜地、绿色栅栏、随买随卖的摊位、黄瓜三明治和茶杯、烤豆和劣质鞋。 帕尔的作品已经进入了英国的视觉词汇；这本书是他第一本专门以英格兰为主题的书，对其进行了进一步的拓展。所有的照片都是用环形闪光灯相机（通常用于拍摄医学照片）拍摄的，这是他在过去四年中选择的媒介。
