Knight is a collection of travel sketches likely written in the late 19th century. The work serves as a vivid exploration of the picturesque landscapes and storied history of the West Country, particularly focusing on places like Devon and Exmoor. Through rich descriptions, the author captures the charm, folklore, and natural beauty of the region, recounting the lives of its inhabitants, including fishermen and farmers, connected deeply to the sea and countryside. The opening of the collection paints a detailed picture of the Devon coastline and its historical significance, referencing famous figures such as Charles Kingsley and the adventures set in this locale. The narrative moves seamlessly from vivid imagery of the rugged shoreline and the echoes of sea-faring tradition to moments filled with personal reflection on how the landscapes have remained unchanged through time. Knight’s writing breathes life into the past, inviting readers on a nostalgic journey that evokes both the tranquility of nature and the rich tapestry of human experience within the West Country.
