Product Description

Product Description
James Bruce of Kinnaird, 'the Abyssinian Traveller', discovered the source of the Blue Nile. With the help of this guide, you too can make a discovery; tracing the source of Falkirk and District's success through its history, its people and its buildings. This is the fascinating story of how a relatively small area at the crossroads of Scotland's Lowlands, bloodied but unbowed after centuries of internecine strife, Roman occupation and harassment by the English, became the engine room of Scotland's industrial might. Read about Dunmore and its mouth-watering Pineapple, the great castles of Airth, Torwood, Almond and Castle Cary, Kinneil House with the finest Renaissance wall paintings in Scotland and Callendar House, Falkirk's very own 'Chateau-by-th-Forth'. Trace Roman Wall and canal as they weave across the district and marvel at the Millennium Link and Falkirk Wheel, a feat of engineering to rival - if not surpass - the London Eye, and stand as fitting symbol for the disctrict's enthusiasm and enterprise. Discover all this and more from the buildings that have witnessed this unfolding story.
