John Ruskin, Henry James and the Shropshire Lads
This fascinating book leads us to Shropshire's beautiful little places(John Ruskin) that inspired great writers, painters, politicians, diplomats and clergymen. In the first part of the book, John Ruskin, the greatest of the great Victorians, is presented among his stimulating circle of interesting and unusual Shropshire friends such as Broseley-born OsborneGordon, his sister Jane and her husband John Pritchard; Edward Cheney of Badger Hall, Venice and London. Ruskin's own visits to Shropshire from an early age were inspirational: he returned and sketched among the ruins of Wenlock Priory. In the second part of the book, Henry James, following in the steps of his fellow countryman Henry Adams, discovers Shropshire. Jamesseeks, savours and imbibes impressions in its Abbeys and Castles, not forgetting his rambles high on Wenlock Edge with stunning views over the Shropshire countryside and Wales
