註釋
"Here is the history and life of a great and beautiful European city. Edinburgh encapsulates the capital city of Scotland and its suburbs for your pocket. Through over 600 black-and-white and colour illustrations, it illustrates the history and character of the city through its architecture - who built it, why they built it, and what renders it so fascinating. There are guides to understanding the Old and the New Towns, poems, quotations, and vignettes. Sir Walter Scott, Lord Cockburn, Sir Patrick Geddes and Robert Louis Stevenson stride across these pages as much as the great architects of Edinburgh's history - Robert Adam, William Playfair, Thomas Hamilton and Basil Spence"--Back cover.
