An Edinburgh Companion, (Paperback)

It is hard not to be bewitched by Edinburgh, with its picturesque castle, dramatic terrain, and the sea lapping at its edges. Our city guide acknowledges these familiar sights, and then moves on, plotting a path of 34 entries that takes in the unlikely alongside the essential: Korean food and what may be Scotland's only Wild West Town; fish and chips and a whisky shop; an island you can walk to and a trio of bookshops; clothing shops and, lest we forget, a handful of pubs for when the need strikes.
