Description
The Lakers (1798) by James Plumptre is a comic play that gently satirises Lake District tourism and the fashion for botany. First published in 1798, it wasn't until 1999 that it received its first performance in Keswick, where the play is set.
This edition includes annotations identifying the people, places and botanical terms used in the play, as well as a short introduction to provide context.
