Harrogate: History and Guide

Part of the Tempus History & Guide series, this book offers an in-depth look at the English town of Harrogate, which for many produces an image of aristocratic gentility, fine hotels, parks and gardens, The Stray and, of course, a famous Spa. The town's motto, "To Be of Service," is a clue to understanding the Harrogate story of the last century, with its huge emphasis of pleasing the visitor.

Zusammenfassung
