Présentation de l'éditeur
There are four hundred books on the gypsies, says a modern tsiganologue, but in all not more than ten which tell us anything new or true about them. Whether this statement is meant to be accepted literally or not, it is evident that much of what is written upon this subject is merely the echo of previous accounts. And also, that a false light has frequently been thrown upon the figures of the gypsies, owing to the fact that they have often been described by people having little or nothing of intimacy with them, and knowing little or nothing of their history.
