Publisher's Synopsis

The Recess Or Autumnal Relaxation In The Highlands And Lowlands: Being The Home Circuit Versus Foreign Travel, A Serio-Comic Tour To The Hebrides is a book written by Frederick Fag and published in 1834. The book is a travelogue that describes the author's journey through the Scottish Highlands and Lowlands during the autumn season. The book presents a comparison between travelling in one's home country (the ""home circuit"") and travelling abroad (""foreign travel""). The author's journey takes him to the Hebrides, an archipelago off the west coast of Scotland. The book is written in a serio-comic style, blending elements of both seriousness and humor. The author provides detailed descriptions of the landscapes, people, and customs he encounters on his journey, as well as his own thoughts and reflections on these experiences. Overall, The Recess Or Autumnal Relaxation In The Highlands And Lowlands: Being The Home Circuit Versus Foreign Travel, A Serio-Comic Tour To The Hebrides is a fascinating glimpse into 19th-century travel and culture, and a must-read for anyone interested in Scottish history and literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
