Summary
Follows historian Paul Murton as he tours Scotland using a tourist guidebook from the 1800's called Black's Picturesque Guide to Scotland. By using wonderful archival footage and photos and often travelling in the same way as the nineteenth century tourists, including on a horse drawn caravan and on a steam train, Paul delves into the history of the location and what has changed over the 200 years since the first tourists visited the sites.
