Publisher's Synopsis

This collection of Daniel Defoe's travel and historical writings reveal the range of his intellectual interests. His "Tour thro' the Whole Island of Great Britain", which came out between 1724 and 1726, drew on Defoe's travels throughout England and Scotland - often as a political agent and spy.
