W. Outram Tristram (1859–1915)

A book filled with commentary about travel and roads and social history, told in an entertaining manner, along with many wonderful illustrations. A great find for anyone interested in English history. Front pastedown has the armorial bookplate of John Buchanan Hinshaw, a Conservative MP of the last century from Much Woolton, a suburb of Liverpool.
