Highways and Byways in Shakespeare's Country - Walks in Warwickshire

Originally published in 1914, this delightful book charts the author's progress throughout Warwickshire. Profusely illustrated with pen and ink sketches, the book gives routes to walk throughout the lovely countryside and villages of Warwickshire and notes much local and historical detail to look out for on the way. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
