Synopsis

Excerpt from A Week in the Yorkshire Dales

Yorkshire! gigantic, princely Yorkshire! name conjuring up reminiscences of days of old, of ancient piety, departed worth, and knightly chivalry - minsters like York, Beverley, and Ripon; castles like Middleham, Conisborough, and Pomfret; abbeys like Fountains, Jervaulx, and Bolton. In point of natural scenery one of the fairest, too, of English counties, with hill and dale, and rivers winding their way like threads of silver through robes of green, and trout glancing across them like arrows, and shadow chasing shadow across the mountain side.

It was in "the leafy month of June" that I decided on a week's tour, for the double purpose of breathing the fresh air of the grandest of English counties and exploring some of its antiquarian treasures. The town was quitted for the life-giving breezes of the country, where in the commonest objects of nature much to interest can be found.
