A riding tour through North Wales, told with keen eyes, humour, and an appetite for the real world you can smell and hear. Beggar On Horseback offers a vivid riding tour narrative framed in early twentieth-century travel writing. Martin Ross guides readers along coast, moor, and mountain, where the horse's patient gait becomes a lens for landscapes, weather, and the stubborn joys of rural life. It is travel literature that slides between awe and detail, revealing not only scenery but the small, generous encounters of a touring mind on the move. The book invites casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike to witness a north Wales setting that feels both timeless and freshly observed. Historical significance sits alongside literary charm: a British travel memoir that captures a bygone era with honesty and humour, a bridge between rugged outdoor travel writing and modern sensibilities. This edition from Alpha Editions is more than a reprint-out of print for decades and now republished, it has been restored for today's and future generations. More than a simple revival, it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure, a cornerstone for students of travel literature fans and riding enthusiasts readers alike. If you cherish classic northern travel writing, this is a true cornerstone-a tactile, transportive invitation to the roads of North Wales and the stories they carry.
