Blue Guide Hay-on-Wye

Blue Guides: Complete Cultural Guides -- The only full guidebook treatment of this charming Welsh border town, famous for its second-hand bookstores and annual Book Festival. Meticulously researched and lovingly written, this book contains a wealth of detail on the town's past and present, its architecture and major monuments, including write-ups of each of its thirty-plus bookshops, plus short itineraries in the beautiful surrounding area: the Black Mountains, Wye Valley and along the Offa's Dyke path. -- "Often plagiarised by other guide writers, Blue Guides have always been a gold standard for accuracy and depth" Daily Telegraph. "Guide books in the grand tradition of thoroughness and objectivity" Georgia Review.
