Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winters in Algeria Nearly all the passengers were now on deck and prepared to go ashore, to avoid being awakened again at five o'clock in the morning by the unloading of cargo in the grip Of that demon, the jerky, cranky, dislocated machine known as the donkey-engine; so called in honor of the being who invented it. We landed in small boats, and paid according to a fixed tariff. Oh, delightful innovation! To be fully appreciated only by the sleepy traveller who has set foot on some Oriental shore, and has had his coat and collar torn Off by Arabs forty, we will say, to strike an average - trying to get posses sion of him and his baggage.

LL that was needed now to complete our Saharian ex- perience was another sirocco, with which we would willingly have dispensed; but an irritating dryness in the atmosphere as we were nearing our tent at Lichana became, later in the evening, unmistakable. We had had a hard day of it, and retired early, for we were to be up at sunrise next morning in order to reach Biskra before mid-day breakfast. At midnight the storm announced its approach by a terrific roaring through the palm grove. Our soldiers' tent collapsed over them, and they came to steady our own, which seemed threatened with destruction. They tightened the ropes and placed heavy stones on the edges of the tent. For some time I had an illusion that my good friend was kicking and pinching me in his restless sleep, but by feeling about in the dense darkness I finally discovered that I was getting all these kicks and cuffs from the heavy tent, which was violently agitated by the wind. I was curious to know how matters stood without, and with some difficulty managed to peep from the tent, at the risk of being half blinded by the whirling sand; but the weird scene was fascinating, and I looked again and again, avoiding each fresh gust of wind. The sky at times, when there was a lull in the wind and the veil of floating sand was less thick, was of a leaden blue and thickly studded with stars; the moon, at its last quarter, was about to disappear behind the rugged mountains, but still shed a ghastly light over the sand-hills and through the roaring and bristling palms, which cast black shadows, chasing each other frantically, like gnomes and sprites flitting across the gray-white earth. Our mules and horses assumed the indefinite shapes of...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Flora of Algeria Visitors naturally Wish to know the names ofthe principal forms of plant life and as no simple, illustrated work of the kind seems to have been published, I have arranged this series of photographs of tree foliage and owering shrubs which, aided by a few words of explanation, will enable them to be readily identified. This collection has no scientific pretensions, comprising as it does, merely the common trees, shrubs etc. To be seen in the course of a day's ramble. It was hardly possible to include many field owers because their name is legion and it seemed unnecessary to reproduce certain garden shrubs, such as the Poinsettia (large scarlet stars), the Plumbago (pale blue), the fragrant Jasmine, etc. Not to mention the numerous varieties of the genus Rose which blossom the winter through.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of Algeria During the Kabyle War Meeting one day with a French oficer of some standing, whom I had previously known in the East during the Russian campaign, I received an in vitation to him in Algeria, whither he was ordered. An expedition for the final subjugation of Kabylia was talked of. Here then was an op portunity, such as I had long sought for, and might never meet with But permission had to be obtained from the French Minister at War, and it was in vain I solicited that permission, though backed by the recommendation of Lord Cowley and the British Embassy. How I besieged Marshal Vaillant, and how I totally failed in moving him to grant me permission to accompany the French invading column, - how, through the kindness of the Chief of the Staff in Algeria, I partially succeeded, would afford little interest to the reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winter and Spring on the Shores of the Mediterranean: Or the Riviera, Mentone, Italy, Corsica, Sicily, Algeria, Spain, and Biarritz as Winter Climates The present work embodies the experience of ten winters and springs passed on the shores of the Mediterranean, from October, 1859, to May, 1869, under the following circumstances: - Five-and-twenty years devoted to a laborious profession, and the harassing cares which pursue a hard-worked London physician, broke down vital powers. In 1859 I became consumptive, and strove in vain to arrest the progress of disease. At last, resigning all professional duties, I wrapped my robes around me, and departed southwards in the autumn of the year 1859, to die in a quiet comer, as I and my Mends thought. It was not, however, to be so. The reminiscences of former travel took me to Mentone, on the Genoese Riviera, and under its genial sky, freed from the labours and anxieties of former life, to my very great surprise I soon began to rally. The second winter I wished to find a locality even more favoured, one more in the stream of life, present or past, and sought for it in Italy. The search, however, was vain, and the unhygienic state of the large towns of that classical land partly undid the good previously gained.
