This book takes the reader on a pictorial journey along the entire
length of the Dee in over 200 old picture postcards, accompanied by
informative captions. Our journey starts in North Wales, high above
the village of Llanuwchllyn, by a stream which flows from ancient
rocks into a sheet of still, deep water called Lake Bala. It is
from this source that the River Dee flows. The river wanders
through the former counties of Merionethshire and Denbighshire, and
eventually reaches the town of Llangollen, home of the
international Eisteddfod. With romantic views of the ruins of Valle
Crucis Abbey and Castell Dinas Bran, and scenes of the Dee as it
flows over Telford's Horseshoe Falls, we leave Wales and head into
England. Crossing the border, the Dee meanders through low-lying
farmland into Cheshire where it encounters the historic city of
Chester. We now accompany the Dee on the final leg of our pictorial
journey as it turns through the Cheshire and Flintshire countryside
and emerges into the estuary to form the natural coastal boundary
between the Wirral peninsula and North Wales.
