A Book of Dartmoor is a comprehensive guide to the history, folklore, and natural beauty of Dartmoor, a rugged and wild region in southwest England. Written by Sabine Baring-Gould, a renowned writer and folklorist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the book is a rich and detailed exploration of Dartmoor's landscape, geology, flora and fauna, and human history.Baring-Gould's love for Dartmoor is evident throughout the book, as he takes readers on a journey through its ancient stone circles and burial mounds, its picturesque villages and moorland farms, and its rugged tors and valleys. He also delves into the mythology and folklore of the region, recounting tales of witches, ghosts, and other supernatural beings that have long been associated with Dartmoor.In addition to its rich cultural and historical content, A Book of Dartmoor is also a valuable resource for anyone interested in the natural history of the region. Baring-Gould describes the geology of the moor, its varied habitats and ecosystems, and the many species of birds, mammals, and other wildlife that call it home.Overall, A Book of Dartmoor is a fascinating and engaging read that will appeal to anyone with an interest in the natural and cultural history of this unique and beautiful region of England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
