I never had the need to hide whenever I've been in England, so cannot vouch for the usefulness of "Places to Hide". However, due to my almost superhuman ability to inadvertently insult people, I will certainty be armed with a copy of "Places to Hide" the next time I visit the UK.
No matter where in the UK I somehow anger someone (perhaps by making an inappropriate remark about their mother or accidentally running over their dog), I can consult "Places to Hide" and find a convenient hiding spot. Not only that, it gives an abundance of pertinent information so I can make the most of my hiding spot. For example, if I was in the vicinity of Ashdown Forest in Sussex when I idiotically told a woman that, yes, her buttocks did look big in that, I could make a beeline to Gill's Lap, where I would no only find a handy hiding spot but know that this very spot was where AA Milne placed Eeyore's home.

Incipit
Dati dalle informazioni generali inglesi.Modifica per tradurlo nella tua lingua.
Warning: This guide offers you, the reader, a multitude of places in which to hide from the world, society, other people and the worst excesses of what is known, without apparent irony, as civilisation. However, the author would like to make it clear that, however well you hide, the one thing you cannot escape from is yourself. If at any point you discover that you have concealed yourself so well that you no longer know where your self is, you have entered a state known as 'delusion' and should come out immediately with your hands in the air. We are your friends. You can trust us.

iv) Use the sun to your advantage - If you find yourself in a tight spot, point at the sky and cry: 'Look, the torch of the gods, it burns its fiery portents into the hearts of all who will see', and then quickly sneak away while everyone's blinded.
