註釋
An unorthodox travel guide to Wales, this book is part history and part traditional guidebook--and a completely witty look the country's cultural contradictions. Informed by more than 30 years of travel experience, this delightful tour features a hike on Snowdon, an abandoned castle in Dinas Powys, UFOs in West Wales, Jack Kerouac on the beach at Gwbert, bizarre sports in Llanwrtyd, flying gravy in Cricieth, and a stripper at the Royal Welsh. Unlike any other, this guide seeks out the alternative side of Welsh history, culture, and people, attempting to depict the unique and indefinable nature of the country.
