Summary: " There is a fascination about places associated with writers that has so often prompted readers to become pilgrims, say the authors. This book will help both armchair pilgrims and travelers, as one reviewer of the first edition put it, 'to wallow unashamedly in the rich nostalgia for what is called our literary heritage.' When the first edition was published in 1977 Robert Nye described it in the Scotsman as 'A lovely book in which to dip and dream,' a sentiment shared by reviewers and readers all over the world." - From the jacket
