About the book >.>.> It has been my wish in putting together the materials I have been now some years in collecting not to con- fine the information they may contain to any particular class but to endeavour in accordance with my motto to make my little book “useful to all.” With this view I have attempted to present to the tourist or passing visitor such a description of the district as my local knowledge has enabled me to give and also to afford those who make a more lengthened sojourn the opportunity of a better acquaintance with the place than the ordinary means within their reach might allow of. While I have tried to avoid the exclusiveness of a mere medical topography I trust the chapter more par- ticularly devoted to the consideration of climate in connexion with discase may be found to contain most of the subjects to which such a description is usually disomed.
