Where to go in Britain

The book is arranged as an alphabetical gazetter and hundreds of beautiful photographs and engravings capture the grandeur of forbidding castles, the elegance of stately homes, the fascination of ancient cities and towns and maps of particularly attractive areas of the country appear throughout the book, and there is a selection of specially drawn road maps at the back locating every place in the book. All these ingredients result in a book which is not only a pleasure to look at, but also an extremely practical guide when choosing where to go in Britain.
