Excerpt from Poetic Sketches, Descriptive of the Giant's Causeway, and the Surrounding Scenery: With Some Detached PiecesTye suhsequent sketches were in part written hefore the appearance of Dr. Drummond's poem on the same suly'ect. 'i have read that work and I am impressed with the conviction, that the sublimity of. His conceptions - the grandeur ofpoetic expression in which they are clothed - will put to silence all competitors, and chill their hopes of arriving at his celehzity, I am sensible, that in treading his footsteps, I have chosen dangerous gro'u'nd and I would earnestly deprecate a comparison.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The British led the way in holidaymaking. This four-volume primary resource collection brings together a diverse range of texts on the various forms of transport used by tourists, the destinations they visited, the role of entertainments and accommodation and how these affected the way that tourism evolved over two centuries. Volume 3: Seaside Holidays Over the course of the seventeenth century, medical writers and practitioners came to realise the health-giving properties of the seaside environment. By the early eighteenth century, this scientific interest was spreading to wealthy people in search of a rest cure. Bathing in the sea, drinking the waters and spending time in the bracing air became a widespread activity, and by the nineteenth century this had expanded thanks to extensive advertising and publicity about its beneficial effects. Specific forms of entertainment also developed, such as piers, aquaria, winter gardens and cinemas.
