"An absolute delight. This book sits firmly in my Top Ten All Time Favourites list and probably occupies a spot in the top 5 - a fluid little list. The Folio Society edition is quite beautiful and Byng's late 18th c. diaries of his travels are greatly enhanced by Anne Hayward's engravings. Full of wonderful (and often amusingly cranky) detail ranging over the price of feed for his horse, the weather as he rode or walked, precisely what he ate at each stop, and of course his opinion on the merit of whatever vista or grand structure he was viewing. Completely fascinating and detailed look at the people who inhabited his world and what daily life was like for many of them. I've re-read this book several times and will no doubt do so again. This edition includes maps of each leg of his travels which is a great bonus, particularly for readers who are not UK residents." - online review.…
