Transcriber’s Notes
Obvious typographical errors have been silently corrected. Variations in hyphenation have been standardised but all other spelling and punctuation remains unchanged.
The main chapter headings in the original were enclosed by blank pages and then repeated. This has not been included with the result that there are gaps in the page number sequence. The page numbers in the table of contents remain as printed, but the links lead to the actual start pages.
BY THE AUTHOR OF THE PRESENT VOLUME
With a Frontispiece. Crown 8vo., cloth, gilt top, 6s.
LAKE-COUNTRY RAMBLES
‘Much has been written about the Lake Country, but few Lake Country books have been so observant and pleasant as Mr. Palmer’s “Lake-Country Rambles.” Mr. Palmer’s unambitious volume has simplicity and real appreciation; he knows what he is writing about, and he gives sound advice.’—Academy.
‘It would be almost impossible to imagine anyone unmoved to keen pleasure in the reading of Mr. Palmer’s book on the Lake-land he knows and loves so well.... It must suffice to recommend all lovers of Nature and good books to buy it and read it. It will—admirable test—be a delightful possession in Lake land itself.’—Vanity Fair.
‘One of the very best studies of Lake-country life that has ever been published, and there is no dull page in it.’—London Quarterly Review.
‘Clever and pleasant reading. The book is well worth the attention of those who collect the literature of country life and sport.... Mr. Palmer traverses many branches of sport, and never writes without interest and spirit.... The whole book is worthy of the country, which has many and fine literary associations.’—Pall Mall Gazette.
