| Authorship Notes |
A staunch critique of what Hall terms 'the Travell of curiosity' and in particular the travel of children of the gentry for education. According to Hall the result of exposure to morally corrupting foreign lands is 'sonnes poisoned by mis-beleefe', returning with 'some tang of wickednesse'. Hall concedes the use of travel for trade or diplomacy, but is critical of the Virginia settlement. |
