Reviews

“Westcott has done it again, masterfully capturing the essence of magnificent Bath”

Jenny Lippett

‘Another enthralling chapter in this tale of Bath, during a period of dramatic change and development.’

Roger Palmer

‘Westcott blows away the myth that Bath is the graveyard of ambition.’

Patrick McCloy

‘An interesting and believable cast of characters move through the conflict of development versus conservation, still relevant in Bath today as the city continues to deal with how society and social mores have changed over the years.’
