Account of the journey that the British antiquarian Francis Carter made between September 1772 and July 1773 between Gibraltar and Malaga. In addition to a detailed description of both cities, it also describes the most significant places of the coast and the Serrania de Ronda between them, with special interest in the description of the landscape and history. Carter's description is one of the most admirable examples of travel literature of the time.
