ECLECTIC REVIEW,

FOR SEPTEMBER, 1812.

Art. I. A Historical Tour through Pembrokeshire. By Richard Fenton, Esq. F. A. S. 4to. pp. 587. Appendix pp. 75. Price 41. 4s. Longman and Co.

SOME books-if we may be permitted to use so familiar a

simile-resemble a warehouse, well stored with goods, but offering few attractions to entice the customers, and fewer accommodations for the mere lounger; while others, like some of our retail shops, exhibit an imposing shew of articles, tastefully arranged in the window, and on the counter, to tempt even those who need not purchase, and to amuse such as cannot. It is hardly necessary to add, that county histories generally belong to the former, and books of travels as frequently to the latter. In the present history of Pembrokeshire, Mr. Fenton has endeavoured, and we think with considerable success, to combine the characteristics of both classes. The geographer, the antiquary, and the genealogist will not be disappointed when they seek for those articles which they are accustomed to collect from similar performances; and the fire-side traveller, whose taste is not so heightened, as to require hair-breadth escapes, or chivalrous adventures on every trip, will find a very considerable share of rational amusement in our author's company. The County of Pembroke, remote from any cities of primary importance, distinguished by no particular manufactures, af. fording no opportunities for the rapid acquisition of wealth, and eclipsed in natural beauty by other provinces of the principality; possesses but few attractions either for the man of commerce or the traveller. It is therefore no wonder that it needs a description ;-such as take the trouble to read Mr. Fenton's will also own that it deserves one.
