Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. My Lord,
Permit me to dedicate to you my Compendium of the British Tourists. I would not presume to offer what appeared wholly undeserving of your Lordship''s protection; nor attempt to obtrude on my readers in general, what I did not think was calculated, either to instruct, inform, or amuse. The public sanction has already been literally bestowed on this work, and encourages me to hope, that I shall not solicit private patronage in vain.
Independent, indeed, of other considerations, it is with some propriety that I address the British Tourists to you.
