The whole purpose of the book is to demonstrate how difficult it is to get to Bath, if you are prepared to see everything on the way. At the time of its publication (1940), the trip to Bath from London took three hours by car. Before the advent of the railroads and cars, the coach road was notorious for its poor condition, which left many a coach overturned and passengers injured (or dead). It was more of an adventure than a safe way to travel. Roberts wanted to learn all about the various homes, towns and inns that he passed through, which makes this book perfect for armchair travellers and those interested in the little things that make up history, rather than the grand events.
