A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

People love walking the streets and every street tells a story. With 14 illustrated walks and over 400 full-colour photographs, Edinburgh's Hidden Walks is packed with interesting details about the Scottish capital's history. Edinburgh has the highest concentration of listed buildings anywhere in the UK and was the birthplace of the Scottish Enlightenment, inspiring its moniker as the 'Athens of the North'. Learn about the old breweries, discover the headstone that inspired Charles Dickens' character Ebeneezer Scrooge, find out where Nirvana played and where Robert Burns kissed his Nancy for the last time.

Biographie de l'auteur

Stephen Millar has enjoyed considerable success with London's City Churches, and three volumes of London's Hidden Walks. He now casts his net wider, walking Edinburgh's pavements and discovering the city's hidden back streets and the tales they have to tell.
