In this volume Home lovingly paints and describes the coastal and Moorland regions of Yorkshire. An artist who worked mainly in watercolour, and who frequently exhibited at the Royal Academy, Home is noteworthy among illustrators for being equally talented with a writer’s pen.

He worked as an art editor at “The Tatler”, “The King” and later at the publishers A & C Black.
