DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Through the Alps to the Apennines This is a book on Italy by a lover of Italy. It is the account of a motor tour by one who loves motoring for its own sake - in other countries. In Italy motoring is not less delightful than in France, or in Germany, not less delightful than it would be in England but for irksome and absurd restrictions. But Italy herself is so inexhaustible in her ever varied attractions, that motoring soon becomes a means of seeing the less tourist-ridden parts of the country within reasonable time. Many of the most attractive cities and monuments of Italy are so difficult of access by any other means of locomotion, that a week would be needed to do the work done by car in a day. Only, it is necessary not to be too voracious - to be content with seeing the best, and only the best, and to know by previous study where the best is to be found. Conscientious and systematic sight-seeing is out of the question when the car is waiting at the door. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Alps For the early chapters of this book I have consulted, amongst other authorities, the books mentioned in the bibliography on pp. 251- 254. It would, however, be ungracious if I failed to acknowledge my indebtedness to that most readable of historians, Mr. Gribble, and to his books, The Early Mountaineers (Fisher Unwin) and The Story of Alpine Climbing (Nelson). Mr. Gribble and his publisher, Mr. Unwin, have kindly allowed me to quote passages translated from the works of the pioneers. Two friends, experts in the practice and history of mountaineering, have read the proofs and helped me with numerous suggestions.

In addition to the acquisitions previously communicated by other meritorious writers, he has brought together many facts, characteristic and highly descriptive of the countries and their inhabitants, in the little scenes and incidents which awaited him - the little pleasing pictures which he happily sketches, scattered here and there through the letters.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Italy From the Alps to Mount Etna Only a few squalid buildings exist here close to the hospice. There are no other inhabitants except the men charged with the maintenance of the road. Six-and-twenty houses have been erected at the most dangerous points of the road, the use of which is to provide a shelter for wanderers overtaken by the snow. The watchmen pass their lives in combating danger for themselves and Others; for fearful storms rage here when the winds from Lombardy and Savoy meet, and rush together like two howling wolves. Such is the landscape of the Mont Cenis: we have endeavoured to sketch it in slight outline. And yet what memories Of great deeds hang round that dreary stony Spot! Of what antiquity is the first track across these heights, - from the days of Hannibal and Constantine, of Charlemagne and the journey to Canossa! We possess a description of the latter by Padre Bresciani, and our blood boils as often as we read it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
