Bag om Beggars on Horseback

Beggars On Horseback: A Riding Tour In North Wales is a travel book written by Martin Ross and originally published in 1895. The book chronicles the author's journey through North Wales on horseback, exploring the rugged terrain and meeting the locals along the way. Ross provides vivid descriptions of the landscape, from the rolling hills to the rocky coastline, and shares his observations on Welsh culture and society. The title of the book refers to the contrast between the wealthy tourists who rode horses for leisure and the impoverished locals who begged for a living. Beggars On Horseback is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era of travel and an insightful portrait of a unique region of the United Kingdom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
