Reseña del libro "111 Places in Nottingham That you Shouldn't Miss (en Inglés)"
- The ultimate insider's guide to Nottingham for locals and experienced travelers- Features interesting and unusual places not found in traditional travel guides- Part of the international 111 Places/111 Shops series with over 650 titles and 3.8 million copies in print worldwide- Appeals to both the local market (more than 331,000 people call Nottingham home) and the tourist market (more than 36.6 million people visit Nottinghamshire every year!)- Fully illustrated with 111 full-page color photographsOften called the 'Heart of the Midlands', Nottingham has given the world Robin Hood, Raleigh bikes, John Player cigarettes and Boots the chemists - and it was here that Ibuprofen first saw the light of a petri dish to the benefit of a million hangovers. As if that wasn't enough, Alan Sillitoe and D. H. Lawrence went to school here, Lord Byron's ancestral pile is just on the city's outskirts, and it was here that King Charles I raised his battle standard at the start of the English Civil War - though precious few rallied to the cause. Local heroes include the cantankerous Brian Clough, who led Nottingham Forest Football Club to a pair of European Cups, the fast bowler Harold Larwood, who famously bowled Donald Bradman during the Body Line Ashes of the 1930s, and the charismatic William Booth, who founded a worldwide movement, the Salvation Army. Despite all this and much more, Nottingham wears its charms lightly, avoiding the tourist crowds, but this fascinating city has much to offer - and we have selected 111 Places to intrigue, amuse and illuminate.
