Beschreibungen
If you thought Gloucestershire's claim to fame was simply honey-stone villages set in stunning Cotswold's countryside then this book will surprise and delight you. For centuries, glorious Gloucestershire has been at the forefront of innovation and famous historical events. It has inspired great works of literature and music, and even has its own rhyming slang. Come with me on a whirlwind journey exploring the Gloucester streets that inspired the characters of Scrooge and Long John Silver, the countryside that gave us Gustav Holst's finest work and the locations where the jet engine, the vacuum cleaner and instant custard were invented. Find out where classic movie scenes were filmed, walk with me to London in the footsteps of Dick Whittington, find out more about our quirky place names, be inspired to explore hidden gems and test your knowledge with quiz questions so you can 'squeeze every drop' out of glorious Gloucestershire.
