Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from South Devon
In dealing with a district, it seems wise to have a point upon which interest may centre, and in this case the natural course is to make Torquay the place. If other towns were consulted, there might be other views, and perhaps excellent reasons for them. But no such consultation has been thought Of, and yet there is no axe to grind for anywhere. The places considered will be pleased to accept this enunciation, and readers no doubt will not trouble about it. They, it is to be hoped, will be pleased also. And if they have not yet known South Devon, it is hard if, when they make its acquaintance - thoroughly, it is to be hoped, - they will not be pleased indeed.
