"The Doctor, &c., Vol. 2" by Robert Southey is a historical narrative likely written in the early 19th century. This work combines elements of topographical study and anecdotal history, focusing particularly on the town of Doncaster, its significant river, and its evolving character over time. It hints at various characters and themes revolving around local history, geography, and societal observations. The opening of this volume presents a detailed exploration of Doncaster, discussing its historical significance, geography, and the changes it has undergone from earlier times to Southey's own. It delves into the river Don, the development of the town, and anecdotes about its past that shape local identity. The narrative emphasizes the importance of local attachments in understanding human experience and encourages an appreciation for the places we inhabit, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of the region throughout the text.
