Description
Not all of Hamish Brown's many travels about Scotland have taken up mountains or into wild and wind swept places, but he has found himself in some pretty odd locations. Now he has listed them, placing them in their regions, complete with references and directions to produce this beautiful and fascinating book that will take you around Scotland to places you never dreamed of. Beutifully designed by Heather MacPherson of Raspberryhmac, and with maps by David Langwell, The Oldest Post Office in the World is a book you will want not only for the car but for the coffee table and the book shelf. It's one to use and one to treasure.
