Beskrivelse

Prepare yourself for quite a journey! For this is a hike through the place that inspired William Wordsworth and many other poets.It's delightful display of three historic counties of England 'where nature has performed wonders'. Places 'in which the genius of Britain rivals ancient Greece and Rome' in their beauty.This book lead to a period of continued tourism in the Lake district of England upon being published. So for all you who wish to enjoy 'sight of scenes that surpass all description', for all of you who'll travel to England and want a handbook to its most beautiful places, and to all you travel bloggers who would like to learn how to describe places in a marvelously inspiring way, read on!It would be quite interesting to compare the description of the author to The Lakes now. How inns and taverns turned into bars and hotels, how trees have grown and rocks have receded, and how nature and humans have done their doings in the place over the course of time.'To this we oppose the sight of the ocean from the summit of all the higher mountains, intersected with promontories, interrupted with islands, and animated with navigation; which adds greatly to the beauty and variety of the grand views.'
