Not only a great travel book, it helps with Geography & History exams,
By Alex Waters "Alex" (Bolton, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Daytrips Scotland and Wales: 37 One Day Adventures Throughout Both Lands (Daytrips Scotland & Wales) (Paperback)
I bought this book for my holidays but when I read it I found it helped me with Geography and History as well because the places written about by the author are so indepth. At the back of the book there is both a Scottish and Welsh timeline about who ruled the country and when. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone.
