While in this second edition the walks aren't perhaps as long, and the stops not always as visually stimulating, this is still a really great collection of tidbits from the history of Bristol. Always even handed when dealing with the stuff of legend and folklore, Revelle-Smith does a fantastic job of demonstrating his love for local history. Above all else, it inspires you to keep you eyes open as you walk about town and keep an open mind of what stories and oddities lay behind the things we walk past every day.
