In A Womans Walks, Lady Colin Campbell takes us on a voyage of exploration through her inner landscape - as well as through Italy, France, Switzerland, Austro-Hungary, London, and the English countryside.\n\nThe books in \"Found on the Shelves\" have been chosen to give a fascinating insight into the treasures that can be found while browsing in The London Library. Now celebrating its 175th anniversary, with over seventeen miles of shelving and more than a million books, The London Library has become an unrivalled archive of the modes, manners and thoughts of each generation which has helped to form it.\n\nFrom essays on dieting in the 1860s to instructions for gentlewomen on trout-fishing, from advice on the ill health caused by the \"modern\" craze of bicycling to travelogues from Norway, they are as readable and relevant today as they were more than a century ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pushkin Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45113317425205,"sku":"ByrdShop_1782273239","price":92.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781782273233_f20ee4b1-9cf6-4ebc-9294-e70f31380b2a.jpg?v=1781061382","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/a-womans-walks-the-london-library-9781782273233","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
