Treasures Of Britain and Treasures Of Ireland
Published by Drive Publications Limited For The Automobile Association: Basingstoke 1977
"This impressive large-format reference work presents an authoritative survey of the historic buildings, archaeological sites, landscapes, and cultural landmarks that form the heritage of Britain and Ireland. Organised geographically and richly illustrated with maps, photographs, and period engravings, it guides the reader through centuries of human history—from prehistoric monuments and Roman remains to medieval fortresses, cathedrals, stately homes, and industrial-era achievements.
Compiled and published by Drive Publications for the Automobile Association in 1977, the volume reflects the AA's long-standing tradition of producing high-quality guides to Britain's cultural and architectural patrimony. Its detailed regional descriptions, fold-out maps, and expert commentary make it both an engaging read and a practical reference for travellers and researchers alike. This book will appeal to collectors of British topographical works, enthusiasts of architectural history, and admirers of heritage travel literature."
