Authorised by Mr Lipwig of the Ankh-Morpork and Sto Plains Hygienic Railway himself, Mrs Georgina Bradshaw's invaluable guide to the destinations and diversions of the railway deserves a place in the luggage of any traveller, or indeed armchair traveller, upon the Disc.
Mrs Bradshaw offers useful insights into...
* Edifying sights along the route: from the twine walk of Great Slack to the souks of Zemphis:
* Essential hints on the practicalities of travel: ticketing, nostrums and transporting your swamp dragon
* Elegant resorts and quaint inns: respectable and sanitary lodgings for all species and heights.
* Diverting trivia: a full overview of the crafts, foods and brassica traditions of the many industrious people for whom the railway is now a vital link to the Century of the Anchovy
Fully illustrated and replete with useful titbits, Mrs Bradshaw's Handbook offers a view of the Sto Plains like no other.
A must- purchase for any fan of the legendary Sir Terry Pratchett.
