Rambles in Colonial Byways

Good to look at and pleasant to read are the sketches of old colonial times entitled "Rambles in Colonial Byways.". In them the author sets forth in pleasing style the result of his observations during a series of leisurely jaunts to various nooks and byways in New England and New York, and along the Hudson, in Pennsylvania and through Washington's country, the spots visited being such as are memorable for their associations and souvenirs of Colonial and Revolutionary days.

Wilson offers a good deal of curious lore about old times and suggestions which will interest a modern visitor, whether it be to the city, the river valleys of the delightful Maryland shores.
