Travelling on horseback, he records inns, roads, meals, buildings and the people he meets with a mixture of curiosity, irritation and sharp judgement. His attention to apparently small details creates an unusually immediate portrait of Georgian life. Edited by Donald Adamson, the selection allows readers to explore a country of regional customs and changing landscapes through a traveller whose strong opinions are as much a part of the entertainment as his route.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55216481141075,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55421149544787,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1085\/2951\/6883\/files\/973.jpg?v=1792531827","url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/rides-round-britain-folio-society-973","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
