Summary "An Unsentimental Journey through Cornwall" by Dinah Maria Mulock Craik is a travelogue written in the late 19th century. This narrative recounts the author's personal experiences and reflections during her journey through Cornwall, a region she has longed to explore. The opening chapters introduce her as she embarks on this adventure with two companions, laying out her philosophy of travel and her intent to appreciate the beauty and simplicity of the Cornish landscape and its people. The beginning of the text sets the tone for the journey ahead, featuring the author’s musings on the essence of true travel—emphasizing the importance of observance and engagement rather than mere rush and superficiality. She introduces herself as the "old hen" traveling with her "chickens," who are eager to explore their surroundings. As they travel from Exeter, the excitement of discovering new sights blends seamlessly with the author's reflections on Cornish folklore and history, revealing her deep admiration for the region and its steadfast spirit. Her interactions with locals, observations of scenery, and thoughtful engagement with her travel companions create an inviting atmosphere, hinting at the enriching experiences that await them in Cornwall.
