British Highways and Byways from a Motor Car Being a Record of a Five Thousand Mile Tour in England, Wales and Scotland

"British Highways and Byways from a Motor Car" by Thos. D. Murphy is the account of a five-thousand-mile road trip through England, Wales, and Scotland in the early 1900s. It highlights the beautiful scenery, old sites, and small towns explored during the journey. Rather than sticking to well-known tourist spots, the story shares the delights of the British countryside and gives helpful tips for anyone wanting to see Britain by car, train, or even walking. The author starts with his first trip to Stratford-on-Avon and then talks about how traveling by car is better than going by train because it is easier to visit the countryside and hidden gems. The author explains how he got ready for the adventure, like using maps, and how having a car made it possible to find amazing, out-of-the-way places. This book inspires readers to take on adventures by car and shows them the stunning landscapes and historical landmarks of Britain.
