Back Roads of southern Spain (Second Edition)

Accolades such as “…a most useful guide” (Sunday Telegraph), “Recommended reading” (Weekend Guardian) and “­Disarmingly honest…highly commended” (Automobile Magazine USA) greeted publication of the first edition of Back Roads of southern Spain and this thoroughly revised and meticulously researched second edition is guaranteed a similar reception.

In 432 information-packed pages award-winning author David Baird covers 25 excursions to delightful and little known corners of southern Spain revealing

• the most interesting sights and corresponding visiting times;
• local fiestas and the legends of historic villages;
• places to eat, from hearty country fare to gourmet cuisine;
• and interesting places to stay to suit every budget.

This guide is both practical and entertaining and makes a wholly worthy companion to the author’s recently published and very well received East of Malaga which also takes the reader on a memorable voyage of discovery. Behind the crowded coast a fascinating world of sweeping vistas, remote communities and majestic mountains unfolds. Comprehensive maps provide the key to penetrating this world.
