Excerpt from South Devon (Including W. Dorset Coast) And South Cornwall: With a Full Description of Dartmoor and the Scilly Isles
Of the numerous, more or less, fashionable watering places which line this favoured coast, it is unnecessary to say more than is said in the body of the book. Torquay, Teignmouth, Dawlish, Exmouth, Sidmouth, Seaton, Budleigh Salterton, Paignton, Dartmouth, Falmouth, and Penzance have all special claims on the seaside sojourner, and are all described as fully as their importance as tourist resorts seems to require.

Excerpt from South Devon (Including W. Dorset Coast) And South Cornwall: With a Full Description of Dartmoor and the Scilly Isles
Our aim in this book is to complete, from a tourist's standpoint, the description of that beautiful south-western portion of England which was begun in our Guide to North Devon and North Cornwall. The kindly reception accorded to that volume has encouraged our endeavours to render the present one as correct and complete as possible, and we venture to h0pe that the traveller, who decides on exploring some of the less frequented and comparatively remote portions of the southern coast-line, will here find assistance not hitherto provided for him.
District described - Taking as our starting-points Bridport and Axminster, as far as which towns we have brie y treated the approaches from London, and - as a focus of the Midlands - Birmingham, we furnish guidance along the Whole coast-route to the Land's End. Inland we trace the course of the Great Western and South Western Railways through the two counties. Exeter and its delightful, environs are described at some length, and of Dartmoor we treat as fully as we did of Exmoor in the companion book. The Cornish Moors culminating in Brown Willy belong to the northern district, but the lower and navigable portion of the Tamar, and the Liskeard region, extending to the Cheesewring, are ih cluded in the area covered by this volume._ The peninsula about Penzance is debatable ground and is described in detail in both volumes, and as the Scilly Islands may be made the terminus of a tour along either seaboard, they, too, find a place in each book.
