“This Handbook is a valuable companion to the traveller by road or rail throughout England.  The places are all in alphabetical order as in a Gazetteer; only such names being given as belong to places of interest.  This includes most places that anyone will care to learn about, and the book will, therefore, be a useful manual of reference for the library, no less than the pocket or travelling-bag.”—­The Bookseller.
