Harper is a travelogue written in the late 19th century. This narrative chronicles the author's summer journey from London to the Land’s End in Cornwall, showcasing both the scenic beauty of the route and the interesting characters he encounters along the way. Through personal observations and witty reflections, Harper conveys his love for the English countryside and its rich history. The opening of the book introduces readers to the narrator and his companion, humorously referred to as "the Wreck." They embark on their walking journey together after much deliberation, motivated by a desire to escape the madness of the city—capturing a sense of the absurdity in urban life as they ponder the state of society. The narrator’s observations cover a range of topics, from the bustling streets of London and their transition into tranquil countryside vistas to encounters with quirky locals, all while setting the stage for the adventures and reflections that will unfold as they make their way toward Penzance.
