Excerpt from Bath and Wells It is disrespect to Bath to say that its visitors have been more distinguished than its natives; it is to the city's enduring fame that so many famous visitors made it their permanent home. This town beside the placid Avon is still a fair place, and it was fairer before growth had brought its somewhat unattractive suburbs. It lies in a hollow among beautiful hills; its churches, terraces, and crescents, even as seen from the railway, are an alluring view, especially when evening is mantling them in its haze; we cant pass through it without a stirring of the imagination, a conjuring of old ghosts.
