About this book
In an era when women’s independence was often stifled by societal norms, "Beggars on Horseback; A Riding Tour in North Wales" by Martin Ross and E. Œ. Somerville boldly chronicles the journey of two spirited women exploring the breathtaking Welsh countryside. This travel narrative captures their encounters with local culture and the challenges they face, all while reveling in the freedom of horseback riding. As they traverse rugged terrains and picturesque villages, themes of camaraderie and self-discovery emerge, making it a compelling read for students and historians alike. With vivid descriptions and keen observations, this work invites civic activists and adventurers to reflect on the significance of women's experiences in the late 19th century.
