Gleanings of the Histories of Holywell, Flint, Saint, Asaph, and Rhuddlan, Their Antiquities and Surrounding Scenery: With a Statistical and Geographical Account of North Wales in General (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Gleanings of the Histories of Holywell, Flint, Saint, Asaph, and Rhuddlan, Their Antiquities and Surrounding Scenery: With a Statistical and Geographical Account of North Wales in General

IN accordance with the plan already laid down, we proceed to give a brief geographical and statistical view of North Wales in general; - its soil, climate, mineral, and other properties. In doing this, we must in candor acknowledge that we are chiefly indebted for this beginning of our labours to Dr. Davies' General view of the Agriculture and Domestic economy of North Wales, drawn up and published under the sanction of the Board of Agriculture 3 - 3. Work that contains much practical information, and, doubtless, has had its Share in promoting that mania for improvement, which has been so pre-eminently distinguished during the last twenty years.
