Small book in a fairly poor condition due to spine damage - Still very readable though - Previous ownership inside - Delightful black and white frontispiece by Walter Crane. (Sort of thing I was almost tempted to enlarge and frame) >>> Stevenson is best remembered for Treasure Island, Kidnapped, and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. - "We are travelers in the wilderness of the world-travelers with a donkey" So Robert Louis Stevenson wrote to a friend on completing this enchanting account of a journey in rural France in 1878. Alone with his pack-donkey Modestine, and showing total disregard for discomfort, Stevenson relishes to the full his walking tour of the Cevennes. Freedom was the important thing: " I blessed God that I was free to wander, free to hope, and free to love." This diary will find many kindred spirits. ( Goodreads) * Classic *
