Our English Lakes, Mountains and Waterfalls, as seen by William Wordsworth

These books appeared at the same time as tourism developed in the Lake District, and helped to shape where tourists went and how they saw the area. They created interest in visiting Wordsworth’s houses: this edition of Wordsworth's poems begins with a photograph of Rydal Mount.
