Authorised by Mr Lipwig of the Ankh-Morpork and Sto Plains Hygienic Railway himself, Mrs Georgina Bradshaw’s invaluable help towards the destinations and diversions of the railway deserves a location in the luggage of any traveller, or indeed armchair traveller, upon the Disc.

*From the twine walk of Great Slack towards the souks of Zemphis: edifying sights along the way

*Ticketing, nostrums and carrying your swamp dragon: essential hints within the practicalities of travel

* Elegant resorts and quaint inns: reputable and sanitary lodgings for many species and heights.

* From worm-herding to Fustic Cake: diverting trivia over the crafts, foods and brassica customs of the many industrious people for whom the railway is now a vital link to the Hundred years of the Anchovy

Fully illustrated and replete with useful titbits, Mrs Bradshaw’s Handbook provides a view of the Sto Plains like no other.
