Synopsis

Rambles Beyond Railways: Or Notes In Cornwall Taken A-Foot is a travelogue written by William Wilkie Collins and published in 1851.

The book is divided into chapters, each of which covers a different part of Cornwall. The author's vivid descriptions of the natural beauty of the area are interspersed with anecdotes and observations about the locals and their way of life. He also includes historical information about the region, such as the mining industry and the legends surrounding local landmarks.
