Experience has proved that I was right. The 27 of 20, 000 copies was sold out and I was pleased to observe that readers included not only 28 from at home and abroad but a goodly sprinkling of Cotswold residents. There had always been, I felt, a need for a definitive reference work which would help the traveler to enjoy more fully and 29 his wanderings round this area of Britain, to me one of the loveliest of all. This new edition has, I hope, 30 from the previous experience gained. It is a bigger and better publication; its 31 cover is more visually exciting and being printed on board makes the book stronger to 32 the handling it will receive. The interest, from all those readers kind enough to write to me with their 33 , in the history of the area has led me to devote more space to this. I have also widened the scope of the book to take in Bladon, Woodstock and Oxford, for 34 these cannot be said to belong to the Cotswolds, many of our visitors come from there or go on there from the Cotswold, as it is but at short step.
