The Cairngorms: a pictorial souvenir
This conveniently sized hardback book is illustrated throughout with over 80 photographs. It provides a degree and style of regional coverage not widely available and is part of a series of regional Scottish books. The introduction, which provides an overview of the area, is followed by a photographic tour of the Cairngorms National Park.
Market: This is an ideal book for those who love Scotland and all things Scottish and for those who do not know Scotland at all. Very good value at just under £5, it also makes an ideal gift for friends and relatives and those who have family connections with Scotland. It is hoped that this book will be an encouragement for those who have never travelled to the area to make their own visit and discover some of the less well-known places it illustrates. In this Year of Homecoming, it is especially hoped that this book will play a small part in providing a lasting memory for all those who return to their homeland.
Content: A photographic tour of the Cairngorms National Park that captures its moods and illustrates the principal features, landmarks and places of interest, some well off the beaten track. From panoramic mountain views to the resident (and secretive) wildlife and on through the surrounding towns and villages, this book aims to present the full sweep of the Park in all its grandeur, beauty and diversity. Most of the photographs were taken especially for this book. A useful list of many visitor attractions in the Cairngorms and their contact details is shown at the end.
Author: Colin Nutt has worked in book publishing for 30 years and has written or compiled over a dozen books in another series.
