Dartmoor

By Arthur Leslie Salmon, E.W. Haslehust, E W Haslehust

Book Overview

A doorway to a time when the countryside spoke in measured weather and quiet paths. A classic English travel companion, reimagined for today's readers. Dartmoor traces a landscape through the eyes of early twentieth century England, assembling regional travel writing with the sensibility of nature writing. This being more than a travelogue, the book unfolds as a thoughtful, immersive guide to moorland horizons, hedgerows and village lanes, a vivid England regional setting that invites armchair travellers to wander with purpose. Its promise-a complete travel collection rendered with care-appeals to casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike, offering accessible prose that grows richer with examination and time. Historically, the work holds a quiet significance as part of legacy public domain works that shaped early regional writing in Britain. Its pages capture the texture of place and the spirit of exploration, connecting nearby regional writers to a broader tradition of descriptive prose and cultural memory. The tone remains clear and reverent, inviting readers to notice colour, light and weather as characters in their own right. The republish by Alpha Editions is not merely a reprint; it is a restoration for today's generations and a heralded treasure for the future-an illustrated edition available as part of a complete travel collection that honours the classic English countryside and its enduring charm.
