Little Book of Edinburgh
The Little Book of Edinburgh is a funny, fast-paced, fact-packed compendium of the sort of frivolous, fantastic or simply strange information which no-one will want to be without. Geoff Holder's new book contains historic and contemporary trivia on Edinburgh. Here we find out about the most unusual crimes and punishments, eccentric inhabitants, famous sons and daughters and literally hundreds of wacky facts.
A reference book and a quirky guide, this can be dipped in to time and time again to reveal something you never knew. There are lots of factual chapters but also plenty of frivolous details which will amuse and surprise. Discover the real story of Greyfriars Bobby (he was a publicity stunt), meet the nineteenth-century counterparts of our favourite modern detectives, from Jackson Brodie to John Rebus, seek out historical sites from the distant past to the Second World War, and
