A Handbook of Dorking (Classic Reprint)Fb&c Limited, 2018年3月7日 - 526页 Excerpt from A Handbook of Dorking Name a third country town for beauty and cleanliness, and all that makes a place pleasant, worthy to be numbered with Dorking and Guild ford. So writes Martin Tupper, the far-famed author of Proverbial Philosophy. We believe that the praise which he has awarded to Guildford is well deserved; an intimate acquaintance with Dorking enables us to corroborate his opinion respecting that town with a still greater measure of certainty. In order to describe it properly, we will take it for granted that our readers know no more about Dor king than the few brief and dry particulars which they may have gleaned from the pages Of a Gazetteer.
