HE object of this work is to narrate the romantic 
history, and cull the poetry, of a district which is 
among the most celebrated, and which all travellers 
allow to be the most beautiful in Great Britain ; 
to describe every scene that has claims upon the 
admiration or attention of ihe visitor, either for its 
own loveliness or for the reminiscences attached to 
it. As in “ The Thames and its Tributaries” the 
Author has undertaken to dwell upon romantic 
and remarkable events, “ in the very spots where 
they occurred, to jog his reader’s memory, and to 
act the part of a gossiping, not a prosy fellow-traveller,” making it apparent 
that, wherever he went, “ he could not but remember,” and that he never 
passed unheeding over any ground “ that had been dignified by wisdom 
bravery, or virtue,” or had charms for the lover of nature.
