The Great Story of Gretna Romance, Remembrance, History, Legacy. Author Heath Hampson This book is for children and adults. I have always been interested in British History, I like to know what was going on before we were born and what life was like in days gone by. I have always wanted to create a book on Gretna. It's a wonderful town with an amazing history. I don't go into detail on some of the topics, just lots of pictures with a couple of lines or paragraph. I would like you to delve deeper by visiting Ewart's Library, Devils Porridge Museum etc, and do your own research into this fascinating area. Hopefully in a few decades time someone else will add to the books written on our area to add to The Great Story of Gretna.
