The Hidden Places of Yorkshire is the second book in the Hidden Places series to receive a major overhaul of the cover design and page layouts. These changes are exciting and we think they significantly improve the usefulness, accessibility and appeal of the Hidden Places series. The county of Yorkshire has it all: beautiful sleepy scenery, history and culture. In the northwest are the picturesque Dales with its varied scenery of peat moorland, green pastureland and scattered woods intersected by the numerous brooks, streams and rivers. To the northeast are the imposing Yorkshire Moors, the rich agricultural Vale of York, the dramatic storm-tossed coastline and the chalky hills of the sleepy Wolds. "Fold upon fold of encircling hills, piled rich and golden" - such was the author Winifred Holtby"s fond memory of the Wolds landscape. In the south are the industrial and commercial cities and towns, Yorkshire"s heritage encompasses the legacy of mills and mining as well as magnificent ruins, grand estates and traces of marauding Vikings."The Hidden Places of Yorkshire is the perfect book to aid travelers in their quest for sights off the beaten track. You"ll find interesting and unique facts that help to color the story behind the wonders of Yorkshire" - The Pass Magazine
