Old Wigtownshire

Meer over het boek

This illustrated history has about 200 photos of the old county of Wigtownshire, the most westerly part of Dumfries and Galloway in south west Scotland. Local historian Jack Hunter has produced an accompanying text that explores the county's history from its early archaeology through to 19th and 20th century rural industries. The major towns - Stranraer and Newton Stewart - are featured as are almost all the villages in the Machars and the Rhins.
