Thomas Hosmer Shepherd (1792 - 1864) was a watercolor artist well known for his architectural works. Brother of topographical artist George "Sidney" Shepherd, he was employed to illustrate architecture in London, and later Edinburgh, Bath and Bristol. His paintings were the basis for steel engravings in many books. Author John Britton was born in 1771 at Kington St. Michael, near Chippenham. His parents were in humble circumstances, and he was left an orphan at an early age. After some slight successes as a writer, a Salisbury publisher commissioned him to compile an account of Wiltshire and, in conjunction with Edward Wedlake Brayley, he produced the series The Beauties of England and Wales. This volume is in the series. Britton was the originator of a new class of literary works. Before his time, "popular topography was unknown." This beautifully illustrated and rare book was produced from a digital copy held by the Bodleian Library that can be downloaded from Google Books. Google has sponsored the digitisation of books from several libraries. Those on which copyright has expired are available for free educational and research use, both as individual books and as full collections to aid researchers.
