 Great Britain
Eyewitness Travel Guide
Michael Leapman (Contributor)
You'd be hard-pressed to find a more comprehensive,
engrossing, and just plain fun-to-read guidebook than the Eyewitness Travel
Guide: Great Britain. Spilling over with all sorts of useful information for
the traveler, you'll find three-dimensional drawings, floor plans, and detailed
neighborhood maps, as well as timelines, charts, and even popular bus routes.
Broken into several sections--"Introducing Great Britain,"
"Region by Region" (including London and environs, Scotland, and
Wales), "Traveler's Needs," and "Survival Guide"--the guide
paints a complete picture of the country. Readers will especially appreciate the
hundreds of color photos of everything from London's double-decker buses to the
ancient formations at Stonehenge. You'll also find street-by-street illustrated
city walks (Covent Garden, Westminster), as well as scenic hikes in the Scottish
highlands and the Lake District, with plenty of listings for inns and
fish-and-chip taverns along the way. --Jill Fergus
