Bath is one of the most popular and significant tourist destinations in Britain. No fewer than four million visitors each year visit the much-renovated Roman Baths, marvel at the sites of this World Heritage city, or simply meander through its now carefully conserved eighteenth-century streets. For a few hours before they are whisked away to Stratford-upon-Avon, Edinburgh or London, they absorb the carefully presented image of Bath as ancient spa, elegant Georgian city and haunt of the likes of Richard 'Beau' Nash or Jane Austen. Bath has always tried to present itself in a favorable light. The true picture of Bath throughout its long and varied history is of course much fuller, more interesting and varied than the facade presented to casual visitors. From its earliest known history as spa during the Roman period, Bath transformed itself into Saxon monastic town and subsequently Norman cathedral city. It developed into a regional market and - perhaps surprisingly - a centre of the woollen trade during the Middle Ages, before becoming probably the most important health resort of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Thereafter, rapid expansion in the Georgian period created an enduring architectural legacy which made Bath the country's foremost fashionable resort, attracting increasing numbers of visitors. Later, the city experienced some years of relative decline, from which it re-emerged, this time as a favored place of genteel residence in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This theme of constant re-invention now sees Bath attempt to become a 'festival city', in the market for cultural tourism, while the long-anticipated opening of a new thermal spa should bring a new lease of life to the hot springs which, of course, represent Bath's very oldest attraction, and in many ways its very raison d'être. This book goes beyond the narrow, popular image of Bath to explore years of extraordinary change, variety and interest, focusing wherever possible on the lives of ordinary residents, and seeking to explain as well as to chronicle Bath's truly unique historical legacy.

Any time spent in Bath is a pleasure. The historic city buzzes with vitality and its accolade as one of UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites is confirmed by the annual arrival of some four million visitors from Britain and all over the world. Whereas most accounts of Bath’s history focus on the Roman and Georgian periods, skipping over much of the rest, this Traveller’s History offers a chronological survey of the entire span of Bath’s existence, supplemented by lively accounts of several of its many delights – its food, its fashions, its theatrical and artistic heritage, its music and its memorialsAlmost two-thirds of the city centre is a conservation area, the largest in Britain. Some six thousand of Bath’s buildings are ‘listed’ as structures of historical or architectural significance. One in six of the city’s houses was built before 1850, almost half before the twentieth century. The city’s highlights include not only the Roman baths, the elegant Pump Room and the majestic abbey, its historic theatre, two major art galleries and half a dozen museums but also one of only four bridges in the world with shops on both sides and Britain’s last remaining Georgian pleasure gardens. With the opening of Sir Nicholas Grimshaw’s striking new Thermae Spa complex Bath entered the twenty-first century by reasserting its original identity as a uniquely therapeutic location. This highly readable guide is all a visitor will need, it covers all attractions and suggests walking tours easily achievable in a short visit plus an entertaining picture of the many famous, eccentric and talented people who made their mark upon the city.
