Canterbury

This work presents an incredible history of Canterbury, a cathedral city situated in the core of the City of Canterbury, Kent, England. The city's cathedral became a primary focus of pilgrimage after the 1170 martyrdom of Thomas Becket. It has ever since been a famous tourist spot and consistently one of the most visited cities in the United Kingdom. The writer included vivid illustrations of the areas that leave a long-lasting impact on the readers, and he entertained them with less-known facts and stories from history. In addition, the work also contains the biographies of the most famous people that lived there.
