The New Shell Guide to Scotland is as much an essential to those who know and love the country as it is to those visiting it for the first time.
This detailed portrait of Scotland, made by two of its foremost observers in our time, is totally comprehensive.
You will discover in this book all the in- formation that the most demanding tourist might require. There are twelve different area gazetteers. Under the 1,424 place-name en- tries, ranging from the cities to the scattered islands, you will find expert commentary on scenery, monuments, history, sporting facili- ties and other subjects of interest, each with a map reference. Clear details of roads for the walker and the motorist are also included.
The text is illustrated with 16 pages in full colour and over 150 photographs in black and white. There are also 16 pages of maps.
Turn to the Contents page and you will see that this is even more than the best of Guides. It is a book to treasure, to read and read again. It will send you out on your travels and remind you of them for the rest of your life.
