Book Description

Excerpt from Journal of Six Weeks' Adventures in Switzerland, Piedmont, and on the Italian Lakes: June, July, August, 1856 The following pages contain an account of six weeks spent very happily. They were written from memory, refreshed by reference to my letters, immediately on my return home. The pleasure of writing this little account has been very great: the scenes were vividly recalled to my mind, and in imagination I almost lived again in the Alps. If the narrative of our adventures gives my friends half as much pleasure as the mere writing about them has given me, both they and I shall have ample reason to be satisfied.
