The History of the Roman Wall, Which Crosses the Island of Britain from the German Ocean to the Irish Sea

William Hutton, a Birmingham bookseller, published his History of Birmingham (also reissued in this series) in his late fifties. Hutton was also famous for his walking exploits, which led to his 1801 expedition to Hadrian's Wall, and his 1802 account, of which the 1813 second edition is reissued here.
