Our Old Country Towns (Classic Reprint) Alfred Rimmer

Excerpt from Our Old Country Towns IN calling attention to a subject that always interests a traveller, a few words of preface may be desirable. The chapters of this work are the result of a few excursions in the now unhappily neglected country parts of England - such parts as are not seen from a railway train. The appreciation for' such subjects is not new, for I find articles in the Gentlemen's Magazine that date as far back as 1745, in which the writers point out interesting parts of England, for the guidance of ingenious travellers.
