This review is from: Mon Mam Cymru: The Guide to Anglesey (Paperback)
THE UP-TO-DATE THIRD EDITION
-------------------------------------- Now in its third edition this comprehensive award winning English-language guidebook to Anglesey is the only one of its kind. The latest edition has more than three hundred full-colour illustrations, including artists' reconstruction drawings of many of the island's ancient sites. There are three parts to the book - an introduction sets the scene, a detailed gazetteer covers every part of the island, and a directory section presents a classified listing of things to do and places to see. There are many inset features, including a series of profiles of the island's notable people and its natural history. Three longer articles summarise Anglesey's seafaring history, its architecture and its cultural heritage. A fold-out map is included. From a review in the 'Transactions' of the Anglesey Antiquarian Society: "This is the third edition of this guide to Anglesey and it maintains its position as by far the best one available - an introduction to Anglesey in all its variety. Highly recommended ... read before a visit it will be an excellent preparation and after a visit it can be studied at leisure." The 264-page guide, in a pocketbook format 123mm wide x 220mm high, has a durable softback binding. "Môn Mam Cymru" is the only guidebook to have gained an Anglesey Tourism Award. A 'companion volume' to the guide, a reissue of a Victorian guidebook compiled in 1832, is also available from the same publisher: A History of the Island of Mona, or Anglesey
