Sobre IBD

''Verbeia Or Wharfdale'' is a poem written by Thomas Maude in 1782. The poem is both descriptive and didactic, meaning that it aims to teach while also describing the landscape and history of the area. The subject of the poem is the Wharfdale region of England, specifically the river Wharfe and the surrounding countryside. Maude uses poetic language to describe the natural beauty of the area, including the hills, valleys, and forests. He also includes historical remarks, discussing the people who have lived in the area over the centuries and the events that have shaped the landscape. The poem is a celebration of the natural and cultural heritage of Wharfdale, and it provides readers with a vivid and engaging portrait of this unique corner 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.
