Background The Pennant Collection Pennant as a Collector and Patron Thomas Pennant, Author and Book Collector ... Thomas Pennant Manuscripts at the National Library Background Thomas Pennant was born at the family home, Downing in Flintshire, North Wales on 14 June 1726. Following the tradition of the majority of 18th century gentry, he attended an Oxbridge college. He was a member of Queens College, Oxford, but like many of his contemporaries Pennant did not complete his formal training, received no degree but left Oxford with a clear vision of his life's work. Whilst at college he discovered the joy of travel and was affirmed in his love of cataloguing flora, fauna and antiquities of every sort. Pennant was the greatest Welsh travel writer of his time and one of the best British topographical authors, alongside Gilbert White (1720 - 1793) of Selbourne and Francis Grose (1731? - 1791). He had a gift for befriending and appreciating people which created opportunities at every stage of his career. Correspondents and advisors were constantly and consistently generous to his commissions and requests. It was no accident therefore that he succeeded to involve talented individuals in long term co-operative ventures. He also had the foresight to employ his own illustrators for his works and to collect material for his publications whilst in the region. Pennant was a prolific and untiring scholar whose wide interests influenced his contemporaries and successive scholars. He knew little Welsh, depending upon his scholar friends such as Reverend John Lloyd, Caerwys (1733 - 1793) to translate and research from original sources. However his respect for Wales, her language, people, history and landscape are evident in all his Welsh writings. He is remembered and celebrated as one of the foremost 18th century Welsh intellectuals and someone who loved and respected his fellow human beings. He was a man of honest and warm humanity whose qualities earned him the title of 'The father of Cambrian tourists.'
