2000 years of history has distinguished Exeter in a number of ways from other places – from the narrowest street in the country to being seen as a ‘red’ city, names after the local stone from which the Roman walls and several dozen medieval parish churches are built.
 
Possessioning Day, Exeter Pudding, the first pound lock in the country and the Anglo Saxon book of poetry are some of the unique facets that express that history and explored in this book. It makes an excellent “guest room” book or a gift for visitors.
