Secret Edinburgh : an unusual guide

Quatrième de couverture : Edinburgh An unusual guide Read the runes on a lost viking stone, map the missing memorials to women, descend into a Cold War bunker, piece together guerrilla mosaics, unearth glorious grottoes, genuflect before the wooden robot overlord, sniff out dogs more dazzling than Greyfriars Bobby, peruse a 17th-century list of ladies of pleasure, discover clandestine art and hidden gardens that not even the neighbours know about. Far from the tourist traps and the crowded landmarks, you may have thought Edinburgh had no more to reveal, but the city still keeps many treasures hidden away in the most unexpected places. An indispensable street and armchair guide for those who thought they knew Edinburgh well or who would like to explore the curiosities of this most secretive of cities.
