Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wanderings in Spain There are many ways of making a tour in Spain. Of these, the one which is usually chosen is the comfortable tour, which takes the traveller by the main line of railway to Madrid, showing him the cathedral of Burgos and the palace of the Escorial on the way, and which carries him on to Toledo, Cordova, Seville, and Granada, almost all places which may be visited and sojourned at with little more of difficulty or of discomfort than is to be met with between London and Paris. The traveller who follows this route generally declines spending his time in stopping at the smaller stations, even though they may be directly on his way; he is content with seing what he has been told is the cream of Spain.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Impressions of Spain Of the historical interest attached to St. Sebastian, we will say nothing are they not written in the book of the chronicles of Napier and Napoleon The following morning, after a fine and crowded service at the Church of S. Maria, where they first saw the beautiful Spanish custom of the women being all veiled, and in black, two of the party started at Seven in the morning, in a light carriage, for Loyola. The road throughout is beautiful, reminding one of the Tyrol, with picturesque Villages, old Roman bridges, quaint manor-houses, with coats of arms emblazoned over their porticoes rapid, clear trout-streams and fine glimpses of snowy mountains on the left, and of the bright blue sea on the right. The flowers too were lovely. There was a dwarf blue bugloss of an intensity of colour which is only equalled by the large forget-me-not on the mountain-sides of Lebanon. The peasants are all small proprie tors. They were cultivating their fields in the most primitive way, father, mother, and children working the ground with a two-pronged fork.

Download or read book Rambles in Spain Classic Reprint written by John Driscoll Fitz-Gerald and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rambles in Spain During 1909 these chapters appeared as a Reading Journey Through Spain, in The Chautauquan. In revising and expanding them for this volume it was deemed wise not to alter the slightly personal and didactic tone of the original version. As the author did not Visit the Northwest, nor the extreme West and Southwest of Spain, he has given no chapters on those sections. For the Northwest and West, however, the omission is not much to be regretted, as the reader may easily turn to the delightfully written and beautifully illustrated N ote Book in Northern Spain, by Mr. Archer M. Huntington. In the opinion of the pres ent writer, the long and interesting chapter upon the bull ring has not its equal in English.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Over the Pyrenees Into SpainThe Spanish nation is professedly devote; they forget while professing themselves Chris tians, that hospitality is especially inculcated by Christ, and Heaven itself held out as its reward I was a stranger, and ye took me in.' All, therefore, that this little volume can claim is to be a lively narrative of the scenes I passed through, and the people I met. If it meet from a discerning public as kind and generous a reception as its predecessor, I hope, ere long, to be once more a candidate for equal favour; and meanwhile, I meekly fold my arms, curtsey down to the very ground to the audience in pit and boxes, in grateful thanks for their favour, and hope the gods - i.e. The critics in the gallery - won't hiss me.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bridle Roads of Spain When you have made a mistake, generally the worst thing you can do is to enter into explanations; and when anybody begins with saying that something is generally inexpedient, you may be sure that he is, individually, and by special exception, going to do it himself. The reader will at once perceive that the Author of these pages, having rashly published a first, is now (perhaps still more rashly) about to apologize in a second edition. His work has met with, perhaps, more than its due proportion of literary notice, in which, as is usual, it has been praised and blamed for the same things by different critics. Under these circumstances, the Author would have been content to adopt the old expedient of accepting the praise and ignoring the blame, if there had not been one grave charge reiterated alike by reprovers and commenders (by these as "a serious blemish, which we the more regret from the many excellences," &c.; by those as the head and front of offending) - namely, the unscrupulous mixture of truth and fiction, which would mar a better book than," &c.

These the mozo, or porter, carries directly from the train to the hotel omni bus, which another good custom of the country is always in waiting, no matter at what hour the arrival.
