OverviewThis fascinating and beautifully photographed guide book follows Cambridgeshire's waterways from leafy Huntingdon to the wide-sky Fens, travelling from the lovely Nene Valley down to the busy port town of Wisbech, and from the gentle stream of the Cam into the architectural glories of the University City of Cambridge. The narrative explores the history of Cambridgeshire through its vanished castles and abbeys, tracing the draining of the wild marshes. Cambridgeshire is a county that is different to all the other English counties, and the watery landscapes of the fens are unique. From the bizarre Straw Bears that lead the hosts of Morris Dancers through the heart of Whittlesey every January to the sedate Rose Fair that graces Wisbech church and gardens every June, Cambridgeshire has something to offer everyone.
