Authorised by Mr Lipwig of the Ankh-Morpork and Sto Plains Hygienic Railway himself, Mrs Georgina Bradshaw's invaluable guide to the destinations and diversions of the railway deserves a place in the luggage of any traveller, or indeed armchair traveller, upon the Disc. It covers topics ranging from the twine walk of Great Slack to the souks of Zemphis: edifying sights along the route; ticketing, nostrums and transporting your swamp dragon: essential hints on the practicalities of travel; elegant resorts and quaint inns: respectable and sanitary lodgings for all species and heights; and, from worm-herding to Fustic Cake: diverting trivia on the crafts, foods and brassica traditions of the many industrious people for whom the railway is now a vital link to the Century of the Anchovy. Fully illustrated and replete with useful titbits, Mrs Bradshaw's Handbook offers a view of the Sto Plains like no other. It is beautifully narrated by Penelope Keith with Michael Fenton Stevens.
