First published in 1810 as an anonymous introduction to a book of drawings, this book was later published as a separate volume, and had gone through 5 editions by 1835. De Selincourt's 1906 edition is reproduced as a guidebook to the landscape in which Wordsworth set so much of his poetry, with an introduction, appendices, and notes textual and illustrative. The text contains complete poems and four contemporary illustrations.
This book is intended for students of English literature and history; general readers; visitors to the Lake District.
