George Borrow's Second Tour in Wales
Transcribed from the 1910 Y Cymmrodor edition by David Price
"George Borrow's Second Tour in Wales" by T. C. Cantrill and J. Pringle is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book documents the travels of the Victorian author George Borrow during his 1857 journey through Wales, focusing primarily on the southwestern regions. Its likely topic is an exploration of Borrow's experiences, observations, and the various locales he encountered during this time, aiming to provide a more detailed narrative than previously existed." The narrative is based on the verbatim transcription of Borrow's original notes, which include his interactions with locals, descriptions of the landscapes, and insights into Welsh culture and communities. The book highlights Borrow's unique perspective as he traversed towns like Laugharne, Tenby, Pembroke, and St. David’s, detailing landscapes and local characters, often infused with humor and charm. Cantrill and Pringle also interweave their own findings and historical context, enriching the understanding of Borrow's impressions and the areas he visited. Ultimately, this work serves as a testament to Borrow's literary travels, providing a glimpse into his vivid explorations of Wales during the Victorian era.
