Publisher's Synopsis

From London to Land's End is a travelogue written by the renowned English author, Daniel Defoe. The book chronicles Defoe's journey from London to Land's End, the southwesternmost point of England. Defoe's journey took place in the late 17th century, and the book provides a fascinating glimpse into life in England at that time. The author describes the towns and villages he passes through, the people he meets, and the landscapes he encounters along the way. The book is divided into several parts, each of which covers a different leg of Defoe's journey. In each section, he provides vivid descriptions of the sights, sounds, and smells of the places he visits. From London to Land's End is not only a travelogue but also a historical document. Defoe's observations offer a unique perspective on life in England during the late 17th century. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in English history, travel writing, or the works of Daniel Defoe.This letter will divide the weighty task, and consequently make it sit lighter on the memory, be pleasanter to the reader, and make my progress the more regular: I shall therefore take in Hampton Court and Windsor in this journey; the first at my setting out, and the last at my return, and the rest as their situation demands.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
