About the Book

Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: DARTMOUTH Great as are the charms of Torbay?and they are indisputable, ?they are altogether different from those of the mouth of the Dart.

And other charms make themselves apparent when an even closer approach is made and Dartmouth itself is made acquaintance with. There is, at any rate in Devon, no other place so delightful as this dear old town, and it is questionable if, in its particular way, it is not the most charming of old English towns and boroughs. Delightful in situation, cosy and snug under the hills, with a richness of verdure in the summer that makes some portions of it like fairyland, it stands alone in its picturesqueness; nowhere else is like it.

Then no town in Devon gives such an impression of age and mellowness as do parts of this. It is, admittedly, not all over alike in this picturesque- ness, but the feature is marked in the portions that first meet the view of the newcomer. Baring- Gould tells the story of his first acquaintance with it in rapturous manner, and, from his point of view and that of many others, the praise is none too high. Thus says he (he made acquaintance with the old town by passage down the Dart, from Totnes): The descent of the Dart should be made as I made it then, on an early summer evening when the sun is in decline, and the lawns are yellow with buttercups, when the mighty oaks and beeches are casting long shadows, and the reaches of the river are alternating sheets of quivering gold and of purple ink. ...
