THIS IS EDINBURGH (RIZZOLI) (HB)

Like the other Sasek classics, This is Edinburgh is a facsimile edition of the original 1961 book that is still timely and current in every way. The stylish, charming illustrations, coupled with his witty, playful narrative, make it a perfect souvenir that will delight both children and their parents, many of whom will remember it from their childhood. The brilliant, vibrant illustrations have been meticulously preserved, remaining true to his vision and, where applicable, facts have been updated for the twenty-first century, appearing on a "This is ... Today" page at the back of the book. Sasek has captured the very spirit, pride, and grandeur of Edinburgh with its famous sights, unique character, and iconic traditions of kilt and tartan, pipes and pipers, whisky and haggis.
