The Little Book of Cheshire is a fast-paced, fact-packed compendium of the sort of frivolous, fantastic or simply strange information no one will want to be without. Here we find out about the most unusual crimes and punishments, eccentric inhabitants, famous sons and daughters and literally hundreds of facts (plus some authentically bizarre bits of historic trivia). This is an ideal book to have by your bedside or to while away the hours on a long train journey. And if you like to take part in pub quizzes (or set them) then you will find this book a veritable treasure trove of useful information. AUTHOR: Roger Stephens is a local author and illustrator who has also worked as a tourist guide for 16 years. His knowledge of Cheshire is superb and he gives talks on local and natural history. His illustrations have appeared in local books and magazines, as well as on display boards for nature reserves and visitor attractions. He lives and works in Chester.
