关于此电子书
Celebrating its 900th year, Edinburgh is an unrivalled theatre of story. In this commemorative book, Donald Smith unravels the city's storytelling evolution across the centuries, illustrated with vivid detail by Cat Outram. How did Edinburgh get its name? What gives the city its unique character? Why do nation and planet come together here? How did Edinburgh become the city of literature, and a Festival city? Which books have made the most impact? Through its nine official centuries Edinburgh has thrived on books, words and ideas. Everyone who loves Edinburgh will love Donald Smith's exploration of this storied town, as will anyone interested in how place shapes people and people, place.
