A Tour Through the Whole Island of Great Britain

Between these covers is a whole historical world to travel: a careful abridgment of the great Defoe's classic circuit of England, first published in three volumes in 1724-26, complemented by a wealth of contemporary paintings, sketches, and engravings of places he visited, industrial processes, activities and events he described, and people he knew. Includes an introduction and notes to the text. Edited by P.N. Furbank, W.R. Owens, and A.J. Coulson. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
