Synopsis

Part guidebook, part readers' companion, Book Lovers' Edinburgh is an exploration of a great city that has been celebrated for its literature since ancient times. It opens up a landscape that will lead you through the sites and haunts of Edinburgh’s literary legends: Robert Louis Stevenson, Sir Walter Scott, Robert Burns, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, J.M. Barrie, Muriel Spark, Alexander McCall Smith, Ian Rankin, J.K. Rowling and others. A combination of a good read and a literary treasure hunt, it unearths the people and places – many of them lost in time – that turned Edinburgh into one of the world’s greatest cities of literature.
