About this book
The Pedestrian's Guide through North Wales is by G. J. Bennett, a tour performed in 1837 with twenty etchings by A. Clint. The list of illustrations includes, among others, a font in the grounds of Plas Newydd, Castle Dinas, Bran, and Valle Crucis Abbey. The author says he is anxious to be thought a useful and an amusing companion to such tourists who, in pursuit of health and the charms of nature, may wander.
The text speaks of ruddy health colouring the smiling faces of every peasant girl and shepherd boy, from Chirk to Holyhead. A tale in the text has a party of men, sent into the mountains to forage for goats, sheep, or provender of any kind that might fall in their way, pass near old Janet's dwelling. The text describes the steep rock of Clogwn y Garnedd, whose dreadful precipices are some of them above two hundred yards in perpendicular height.
