An Illustrated Itinerary Of The County Of Lancaster
By Cyrus Redding
Published by How And Parsons: London 1842 1st Edition

"Cyrus Redding (1785-1870) was a British journalist and wine writer. An Illustrated Itinerary of the County of Lancaster is a mid-19th century travel narrative that combines descriptive writing with visual depictions of Lancashire. The book provides readers with a detailed journey through the county, highlighting its towns, villages, natural scenery, and industrial features. Redding weaves together historical anecdotes, architectural observations, and accounts of local customs, giving the work both an informative and picturesque character. The inclusion of illustrations enhances the text, helping to convey the atmosphere of the places visited.

Beyond mere travel notes, Redding's itinerary captures the spirit of Lancashire during a time of industrial and social transformation. The county's growing textile and manufacturing hubs are set against its historic sites, rural landscapes, and cultural traditions, reflecting the contrasts of progress and heritage. The book serves both as a guide for travelers and as a cultural record, offering readers of the Victorian era, and later generations, an engaging portrait of one of England's most dynamic counties.
