Simply written and poorly edited. Little colour added to interesting stories - it felt like I was reading a Wikipedia page rather than what should have been a charming local interest book. Errors in text such as spellings and spaces/punctuation. Some interesting facts and stories.

I think I'll likely read a few more of this "little book..." series as they're a great way to dip into a variety of subjects. Like the "Little History" this doesn't go into heaps of detail, but it does offer a great place to start researching on various topics, and to give me ideas on places to visit in Somerset!

A must-read for those staying or liking Somerset, containing tons of interesting information and history regarding the county. Should have read earlier to really visit the places around...
