The Victorian age brought out the urge for people to wander and the freedom to do so. This was accompanied by a stream of guidebooks, some authors, like the much earlier William Camden eager to list and describe the antiquities and histories, some publications in the style of a modern guide book suggesting walks and places to visit. Warden Page (1858-1916), a member of the Somersetshire Archaeological and Natural History Society was a local historian and geographer who produced a relatively large number of books such as An Exploration of Dartmoor and its Antiquities, The Rivers of Devon, An Exploration of Exmoor and the Hill Country of West Somerset (London. Seeley & Co. 1890, 1895) as well as Okehampton: its Castle.

These books, on which copyright has expired, are available for free educational and research use, both as individual books and as full collections to aid researchers.
