Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winter Tour in Spain There are but two classes of travellers to be met with in Spain; those who go there for climate, and those who go for pleasure, and even of these the number is very limited. None flock here, as they do to most other European countries, for education or economy; these are two objects as yet unattainable. Neither invalids nor tourists, however, will be disappointed, for they will each meet with what they seek. The climate in the south and along the east coast of Spain is magnificent; the scenery and objects of interest throughout the country must fulfil the expectations of all. But climate is not everything to those who, on account of health, are driven from their own country, though it may appear to be, and is, the main object. There are many drawbacks to contend with in encountering a winter in Spain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Travels in Spain in 1797 and 1798 written by Frederick Augustus Fischer and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in Spain in 1797 and 1798: With an Appendix on the Method of Travelling in That Country In this work the author's object was to exhibit the first impressions of a traveller, and to give a living picture of the country. He has endeavoured to note those particulars which have escaped other writers, and on which the plan of Bourgoanne only permitted him slightly to touch, as for instance the present state of literature in Spain, and the mode of travelling there, which is the subject of the appendix. The reader will therefore confider these sheets as a series of practical notes to that and other works, and in this point of view the author hopes his labours may be associated with those of that distinguished writer.

Download or read book Royal Spain of Today Classic Reprint written by Tryphosa Bates-Batcheller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-15 with total page 836 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Royal Spain of Today Above all else, writers on foreign parts should be broad of view and unprejudiced, and if I have become prejudiced in favor of Spain, it is because I entered Spain without prejudice and have been by experience with people and country made to know and under stand its worth, its sterling qualities, and its fascina tion. Although grace and beauty abound, and music and dancing are on every hand, Spain is not, as some people believe, a country primarily of castanets and fandangoes. The Spanish people are today fully alive to their great internal possibilities; the rich mines are yielding once again rich stores, ships are busy entering and leaving Spanish harbors as of old, industries have seemingly taken on in these last ten years new impetus, new railroads are being built, and Spain is indeed born again. Surely Spain's great heritage of the past would point to great achievement in the future, and while an occasional exception in heritage may weaken the bond for a time, it rarely breaks it, and among all who understand the Spanish people of the present day, it is generally believed that Spain is entering upon a new era of progress and achievement. Surely they are fortunate in their young King, born to them a king indeed, in a moment of need and anxiety, but inheriting from all sides the qualities necessary to guide and guard his people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Across the Country of the Little King: A Trip Through Spain The number of tourists availing themselves of the Southern or Mediterranean route is annually increasing. Many, taking advantage of the stop over privilege, land at Gibraltar and have a hurried but fairly satisfactory glimpse of Tan gier, Seville and Granada, While a goodly number leave the steamer at that port and pass by the route herein portrayed to the northern frontier, a journey of surpassing interest. The student or specialist may find the available literature on the subject satisfactory, but, to the ordinary traveller, Ford, Murray and O'shea are cumbersome, heavy and profuse. While not offered as a Guide-book, it is felt this modest volume will prove a pleasant and useful companion along the way, touching upon all the sights the bird of passage will care to see.
