Description
Britain's many traditions have long been one of its greatest attractions; some are extremely famous, but other more weird and wonderful customs are not so well-known and these are often the most fascinating, intriguing and amusing.Organised by month, nearly 100 customs from all over the UK are described and their history and purpose explained.For those who want to take their curiosity a little further, the date and location of each event is given, and there is a section at the back of the book listing the contents by region to allow readers to find out if they can experience the events for themselves either by watching or participating.
