Tour to Preston Guild in 1802 : A Unique Take on a Unique Event, Paperback / softback Book

Tour to Preston Guild in 1802 : A Unique Take on a Unique Event Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

An hilarious, never before published account of a trip to the 1802 Preston Guild from a young man not afraid to have a good time and express his opinions.

Lord Linton shows childlike wonder at the circus feats, gossips about the fashionable people and exaggerates wildly!

Found in the archives at Traquair House and illustrated with images from the collections of the Harris Museum & Art Gallery, Preston, this diary is both a remarkable historical document and a thoroughly enjoyable read.

Published to celebrate Preston Guild 2012.
