This review is from: On Horseback (Kindle Edition)

This is a little travel book from the 1880's. The author rides through the mountains of North Carolina providing helpful tips that I found amusing and an insight into the times, for example, choosing a walking horse, lodging at cabins without dirt floors, eating at a farmhouse that had an egg. When the author lost his wallet on the trail he observes that it was "crocodile, probably imitation". Some things never change, others do, he expected the wallet to be return and it was.

All in all, a nice read, especially when it's free.
