We should have liked very much to have prolonged our stay at Dolgelly; we left the quaint old town without having explored a tithe of its beauties, and we left it with great regret, taking away with us many pleasant recollections of the place and its romantic surroundings. But we had much in Wales to see yet, and a good deal of England on our return journey home. So the next morning being fine, with a clear sky and a glorious sunshine overhead, we determined to make a start, as we felt, in spite of the attractions of Dolgelly, we could not afford to let such a grand day pass by without making another stage. Our destination for the night was the renowned valley of Festiniog, a vale far famed for the entrancing beauty of its scenery, and of which Lord Lyttelton says, 'With the woman one loves, with the friend of one's heart, and with a good study of books, one might pass an age in this vale and think it a day.' Other writers, not a few, have lavished their encomiums on this spot; we were therefore doubly anxious to reach it in favourable weather, that we might have time and a proper opportunity of seeing the same, and exploring some, at least, of its lovely nooks.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Old-Fashioned Journey Through England and Wales Some years ago a friend persuaded me to join him on a driving tour through the southern counties. It was my first experience of such a delightful mode of travel, and I determined it should not be my last. Before that never-to - be-forgotten journey, I thought I knew England and English scenery well, but that drive was to me a revelation. Since then fortune has been propitious; time and opportunity have permitted me to enjoy my summer holiday by taking driving excursions of some hundreds of miles every year, being away some two or three months each time. This volume is compiled from brief notes taken during one of those pleasant journeys. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
