may find The Road to the North, by Frank J. Nash (51 Vincent Square, 2s. 6d. net), useful. The traveller is supposed to make his first "halt by the wayside" at York, and to visit the coast watering-places, Wharfedale, Harrogate, Ripon and Fountains Abbey, Penrith, Durham, Newcastle, Berwick and the Border, Holy Island, &c.
