Présentation de l'éditeur

The author of the following pages has often asked himself, how it happens that narratives of travels arc in general so dry and dull, whilst travelling itself is so delightful and instructive. To visit foreign lands is not all that is necessary to enable the tourist to draw a pen-and-ink picture of the scenery, and to describe the manners and customs of the inhabitants. Taste and feeling must be at the base of all. If some knowledge is required to form a correct opinion of art, as it is displayed in the architecture and adornments of a town, how much more refined and delicate is the sentiment which teaches us to appreciate the beauties of nature, where we must ficl what we see. Few are gifted with this faculty of perception.
