Rambles Beyond Railways; or, Notes in Cornwall taken A-foot by Wilkie Collins audiobook. Genre: adventure Set out on a breezy Victorian ramble along the rugged coasts and hidden lanes of Cornwall with Wilkie Collins as your witty, observant guide. Equal parts travel journal, character sketch book, and meditation on landscape, Rambles Beyond Railways invites listeners to feel the crunch of pebbled shores, smell the sea-salt air, and meet a parade of rustic characters—from stoic fishermen and eccentric innkeepers to miners and antiquarians—each rendered with Collins’s lively eye and conversational charm. Interwoven with lively anecdotes, local folklore, and sharp social observation, these walking notes capture both the picturesque beauty and the everyday hardships of mid-19th-century Cornwall, offering surprising moments of humor and melancholy. Ideal for armchair travelers and lovers of Victorian prose, this audiobook turns a simple stroll into an intimate, immersive journey through place, history, and human detail, making the listener long to lace up boots and follow the path beyond the rails.
