Byng had the essential attributes of an excellent diarist, including an infinite variety of interests, independence of judgment and a refreshing absence of cant and humbug. Byng left us a picture of England as it was when he lived, which is among the great treasures of our social history. We see the country face of late eighteenth century England. We loiter in the trim garden of the George Inn at Silsoe; we reward with a penny, crossing the Trent at Newark, 'the ferryman's pretty little daughter, Steeriste.' We share with him his good meals as well as his bad. We share, too, his delight in England's antiquities and forgotten glories." -- Arthur Bryant. First Printing of the First US Edition. Hardcover.
