SHORT HISTORY OF BATH (PB)

Whereas most accounts of Bath's history focus on the Roman and Georgian periods, skipping over much of the rest, this short history offers a chronological survey of the entire span of Bath's existence, supplemented by lively accounts of its food, its fashions, its theatrical and artistic heritage, its music and its memorials. It also gives an entertaining picture of the many famous, eccentric and talented people who made their mark upon this World Heritage Site.
