GEORGE HENRY BORROW (1803-1881) was an English writer of novels and of travel books based on his personal experiences in Europe. During his travels, he developed a close affinity with the Romani people of Europe, who figure prominently in his work. His best-known books are The Bible in Spain (1843), and the novels Lavengro (1851) and The Romany Rye (1857) recalling his time with the English Romanichal (Gypsies). Wild Wales (1862). WILD WALES: Its People, Language and Scenery - is a travel book that recounts Borrow's personal experiences and insights while touring Wales alone on foot after a family holiday in Llangollen in 1854, and has come to be regarded as a source of useful information about the social and geographical history of the country at that time. It has been described as 'robust, dramatic and cheerful', and the author as 'an agreeably eccentric, larger-than-life, jovial man whose laughter rings all through the book'. The author makes much of his self-taught ability to speak the Welsh language and how surprised the native Welsh people he meets and talks to are by both his linguistic abilities and his travels, education and personality, and also by his idiosyncratic pronunciation of their language. Borrow gives a detailed account of his journey and starts his travels into North Wales from Chester, passing en route through Wrexham, Llangollen, Corwen and Betws-y-coed to Bangor, Anglesey, Caernarfon, Bala, Machynlleth and then south, through Mid Wales to Tregaron and Lampeter, Devil's Bridge, Cwm Ystwyth and Pont-rhyd-y-groes, eventually arriving in some of the industrial areas around the South Wales coalfields, such as Brynamman, Merthyr Tydfil and Pontardawe, before visiting Swansea and Neath and leaving the country via Caerphilly, Newport and Chepstow. 8vo. **Will be well-packed for posting/shipping**.
