c2c says
Explosive Scotland: I have not been totally engrossed by a book for many years. Ben Cooper’s book did. It contains stunning photography and quality layout. Ben says that he did not set out to write a history book. History is all about legacy, The book will set in stone the buildings shown they will remain even after progress has physically eliminated them, that is legacy.
Well done Ben. John Williams
