The Tour of Dr. Syntax in Search of the Picturesque

About this film

LibriVox recording of The Tour of Dr. Syntax in Search of the Picturesque by William Combe. Read in English by Adrian Praetzellis “To bury these, to christen those, And marry such fond folks who chose To change the tenor of their life And risk the matrimonial strife.” This was the humdrum life of Dr. Syntax before he set out on his bizarre and hilarious adventures, presented here in the form of satirical poem in 26 cantos. It’s a lot of fun! - Summary by Adrian Praetzellis For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.
