Sitting regally in a valley in a pretty corner of England, Bath is blessed with the only thermal springs in Britain, a fabulous abbey church and the most stunning array of Georgian architecture in the world. Little wonder that the city has been a destination for travellers for over 2,000 years. Everyone from ancient Romans to Hollywood actors have praised Bath's beauty, making it one of the most written about cities in the world. The city has gone though many guises - Roman resort and Saxon ruin; Elizabethan spa and Georgian playground; Victorian retreat and World Heritage City - and people have continued to come and be delighted by it. This book brings together photographs of Bath today and love letters to the city from some of its greatest visitors down the ages.
