Walking Cambridge: 1000 Years of History in 8 Walks
Walk along pavements embedded with flowers, discover how John Hodson rose from a college servant to become a rich man, only to lose it all in a famous scandal, and find a monument erected by the deposed prince of Siam in memory of his faithful pooch.
Compiled in a neat yet beautifully illustrated book, these walks will not only take you through ancient college cloisters to reveal Cambridge’s most famous sights, but also lead you far from the well-trodden tourist path, bringing to life long-forgotten voices and telling some surprising tales.
Contains 8 illustrated walks, with details on the best cafés & pubs, information on local attractions, museums and galleries (including Kettle's Yard!), and maps to help you navigate.
