Edinburgh : A Very Peculiar History Hardback
by Fiona Macdonald
Part of the Very Peculiar History series
Description
Discover the horrible and hilarious secrets of Edinburgh's chequered (or perhaps tartaned) past.
Fiona Macdonald presents a history of Scotland's most powerful city, from ancient to modern, gracious to grimy.
Edinbroo! 'Auld Reekie', 'Quite enchanting - like fairlyland!','The Athens of the North', 'Edina, Scotia's darling seat', 'World Festival City'(modest, huh?)' or even a 'Mad God's Dream' of architectural splendour - Edinburgh has been all things to all men (and women).
Fiona Macdonald explores the history of the city in this pocket-sized, quirky gift book.
