Set against the backdrop of the Lake District in 1794, the narrative captures Ann Radcliffe's reflections during her famed tour. As a prominent Gothic novelist, her observations bridge picturesque tourism and the evolution of Romantic literature, influencing writers like John Keats and Thomas De Quincey. This edition revitalizes Radcliffe's insights on a landscape still being explored, featuring editorial notes, further reading suggestions, and an introductory essay that contextualizes her life and the cultural importance of her work.
