Walks In The Way Of Old Weever! (1862)

By Edwin Roffe

Book Overview

Walks In The Way Of Old Weever is a book written by Edwin Roffe and published in 1862. The book is a collection of essays and stories that take the reader on a journey through the English countryside, exploring the history and folklore of the land. The title of the book is a reference to John Weever, an English antiquary and historian who lived in the 16th and 17th centuries. Roffe's book is a tribute to Weever's work, and he uses it as a starting point for his own explorations. The book is divided into chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of English history and folklore. Some of the topics covered include ancient roads and pathways, standing stones and other prehistoric monuments, and the legends and myths of the English countryside. Roffe's writing is descriptive and evocative, painting vivid pictures of the landscapes and people he encounters on his walks. The book is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era of English history and culture, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the country's rich heritage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
