Sights A-Foot is a travelogue written by the famous English author Wilkie Collins in 1876. It is a collection of his experiences and observations during his walking tours across England, Scotland, and Wales. The book is divided into chapters, each focusing on a different region or city that Collins visited. Collins' vivid descriptions of the landscapes, architecture, and people he encountered during his travels offer a unique insight into Victorian England. He also includes anecdotes and historical information about the places he visited, making the book both informative and entertaining. In addition to his observations of the natural and built environment, Collins also comments on social issues of the time, such as poverty and class inequality. His writing style is engaging and humorous, making Sights A-Foot a delightful read for anyone interested in travel writing, history, or Victorian literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
