Places
Of Scotland
Scotland:
An Encyclopedia of Places and... Landscape. It is remarkable
that in this age of information there is no up-to-date guide
to the places of Scotland. That situation is about to be remedied
with the publication of Scotland: An Encyclopedia of Places
and Landscape, edited by Dr David Munro, Director of the Royal
Scottish Geographical Society. This authoritative, comprehensive
gazetteer will include over 10,000 entries on cities, towns
and villages, mountains, lochs and rivers, visitor attractions
and monuments throughout the nation. Each entry places its subject
in an appropriate historical, geological or environmental context,
providing essential information of interest to a wide range
of potential users. Street plans are provided for over 100 main
towns and cities, and 100 photographs of notable landmarks are
spread throughout the book. All entries are cross-referenced
to a full-colour atlas, providing a wealth of extra cartographic
information.
