About this product
Product Information
Is a famous queen of Britain really bured beneath platform 10 at King's Cross station in London? What is the telephone number of the National Theatre? what is the best place to eat in Worcester? Where is the National Bagpipe Museum? (Hint: not in Scotland) Was Pointius Pilate born in Pitlochry? The answers to these questions and literally thousands more are to be found in David Kemp's fascinating guidebook, The Pleasures and Treasures of Britain. Nowhere else will the discerning traveller find so much diverse and essential information about British culture gathered together in one volume. With the author as your witty and knowledgeable guide, take a tour through nearly fifty cities, from Penzance to Perth, from London to Cardiff and Belfast. Each city section begins with a concise, readable history and a guided walk around the town, planned to take in as many of the significant local sights as can comfortably be included. Next are exhaustive listings, including telephone numbers and addresses, of everything a culturally curious visitor might want to seek out: theatre, art galleries, museums, antique markets, antiquarian and other bookstores, restaurants, lcoal fairs and festivals and more. Finally, under the headings of Artistic Associations and Ephemera, each section concludes with an entertaining collection of local lore, gossip, legend and anecdote.

Arrived early in great condition. Price was below average as was the shipping fee. My only issue was that the seller did not respond to my questions before I made the purchase and although I probably still would have made the purchase, it wasn’t exactly what I had hoped it was which I would have known ahead of time should I have received a reply and on hindsight, my question a tad silly anyway. Overall I am content and would buy from this seller again.

Beck - set 5 DVD region 1 US import took a bit longer to arrive than normal. But was well packed and a great price, including delivery, which was further enhanced by ebay's 15% Spring discount offer. Very good condition as described. Although one disc needed cleaning to make it play better. Recommended seller!
