Wanderings and Excursions in North Wales [PDF ebook] 

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. He has sought to convey with fidelity his impressions of the noble and picturesque scenery of our British Alps — of the spirit of improve ment every where manifested by the people — of their frank bearing, and peculiar traits, — with occasional notices of the distinguished characters, — warriors, bards, ornaments of the pulpit, or of the bench, — who may have shed lustre round their native land. Most of all, he could wish to convey some idea of the delight and the advantage to be derived.
