From the Publisher
Often referred to as the 'Red Dragon', Wales is a country
blessed with some of the most dramatic landscapes in Britain. To the north
lies Snowdonia, a land of awe-inspiring mountains, wild moorlands and
enchanting lakes, whilst further south the land is abundant with deep
valleys and vast forests. To the west the country has a spectacularly
varied coastline of cliffs, coves and sandy beaches. Wales also has a rich
cultural heritage full of myths and legends founded on Celtic ancestry but
has an equally strong industrial past.
