* Elegant resorts and quaint inns- respectable and sanitary lodgings for all species and heights.
* Diverting trivia- a full overview of the crafts, foods and brassica traditions of the many industrious people for whom the railway is now a vital link to the Century of the Anchovy

Fully illustrated and replete with useful titbits, Mrs Bradshaw's Handbook offers a view of the Sto Plains like no other.

A must- purchase for any fan of the legendary Sir Terry Pratchett.
