Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theakston's Guide to Scarborough: Comprising a Brief Sketch of the Antiquities, Natural Productions, and Romatic Scenery of the Town and Neighbourhood The rank which Scarborough had long held, as a watering-place, the various improvements which had been effected, and the interest connected with many places in its immediate vicinity, rendered, a few years ago, a Guide to the town and neighbourhood an indispensable requisite to the visitor. In the hope of supplying such a want, the first edition of this little work was published; and the demand for that and the succeeding edi tions, leads the publisher to hope his aim has been accomplished, and his efforts to please his friends have been fully appreciated by them. In the present te-issue, the details are brought down to the present date, and a variety of new and inter esting matter has been added. The illustrations have also been increased in number by the addi tion of several beautiful engravings on steel, from drawings by Mr. H. B. Carter, a resident artist; and it is believed that in the edition now before the public, every assistance is given to the visitor, while a due regard has been paid to economy of price. The publisher therefore indulges the h0pe that his little volume will continue to receive that favour and support, which are generally afforded to endeavours so well intended.
