HIGHWAYS AND BYWAYS IN DORSET 

 Sir Frederick Treves 



Introduction by Roland Gant 

 Sir Frederick Treves was an eminent Victorian 

 surgeon, a writer of travel and medical books, and a 

 Dorset man who never lost his feelings for his home 

 county. 



To research Dorset Sir Frederick cycled over 2,000 

 miles; his diligent attention to visual detail and 

 historical accuracy displays a true craftsman at work. 

 Dorset may have changed much since 1914 when 

 Treves published Highways and Byways , but writing 

 such as this endures and, despite the depredations of 

 the twentieth century, this book can serve as a better 

 guide for holiday-makers than most available in the 

 high streets of Poole or Wareham.
