""A Book of Devon"" is a comprehensive guide to the county of Devon in South West England, written by the prolific author and folklorist Sabine Baring-Gould. First published in 1900, this book provides a detailed exploration of the history, geography, culture, and natural beauty of Devon. The author takes the reader on a journey through the county, visiting its towns and villages, exploring its landmarks and attractions, and delving into its rich folklore and traditions. The book includes chapters on the county's prehistoric past, its Roman and Saxon history, its Norman castles and churches, and its role in the English Civil War. Baring-Gould also covers the county's natural features, including its rugged coastline, rolling hills, and moors, and its wildlife and flora. The book is illustrated with maps, photographs, and drawings, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of Devon.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
