Wiltshire Essays (1921) is a collection of essays written by Maurice Hewlett, a British author and poet. The book is a tribute to the county of Wiltshire, located in the south-west of England, and explores its history, landscape, and people. The essays cover a range of topics, from the prehistoric monuments of Stonehenge and Avebury to the literary figures who have been inspired by the county, such as Thomas Hardy and William Cobbett. Hewlett also delves into the local customs and traditions of Wiltshire, including the ancient sport of hare coursing and the practice of mumming, a form of folk theatre. The book is written in a lyrical and descriptive style, evoking the beauty and mystery of the Wiltshire countryside. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history and culture of England, and a must-read for lovers of Wiltshire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
