About This Book
A concise practical guide for short visits that indexes the island’s principal towns, coastal stretches, and inland attractions, and offers suggested short tours to see highlights in two or three days. It combines compact topographical and scenic descriptions, notes on climate and natural features, practical information on inns, passages, and conveyances, and engraved views and a map. Drawing on extended local experience, it points readers to notable viewpoints, geological and historical curiosities, and efficient routes, and distinguishes handbook-style detail from larger pictorial or companion works.
