Historic Walking Guides: Edinburgh
(2009, Destinworld Publishing)

A new travel book on Edinburgh featuring many walking routes through the city, each taking in the historic sights and attractions along the way.

Historic Walking Guides: Edinburgh is written by local author Andy Hayes, who consulted with local historians and spent many hours walking the streets to uncover the city’s history and hidden gems. For those visiting Edinburgh for the first time, this book takes you to and explains the relevance of all of the main historic attractions and sights in the city. Alternatively, if you’re already familiar with Edinburgh, this book takes you further into the past with detailed historical information which other guidebooks fail to delve into.

This book is the perfect companion for any visit to Edinburgh for those with any interest in history. With carefully crafted walks through many parts of the city, no corner is left undiscovered. Andy is a master of description, and his enthusiasm for Edinburgh shines through with every sight he takes us to.
