Rediscover the vanished landscapes that inspired one of Victorian England s most beloved collections of Gothic whimsy and folklore. The Ingoldsby Country: Literary Landmarks of the 'Ingoldsby Legends' invites readers to wander the lanes, churches, and taverns that gave life to the Ingoldsby Legends.Charles G. Harper s evocative travel literature stitches together English folklore, historical England, and the humourous macabre of 19th-century authors into a vivid guidebook: anecdote, architectural description, and folkloric excavation. Harper traces the real places behind the Legends Gothic tales, illuminating how moors, parish churches, and country inns shaped a peculiar strain of British countryside storytelling. Rich with local lore, historical detail, and Harper s warm, observant prose, this volume is both a companion for literary tourism and a scholarly tribute to cultural heritage.Alpha Editions proudly republishes this once-forgotten landmark out of print for decades and carefully restored for today s and future generations.

Reclaim a piece of literary history and let the British countryside speak again through Harper s luminous pen.
