Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Scotish Gaël; Or Celtic Manners, as Preserved Among the Highlanders, Vol. 2 In the art of castrametation, it has been shewn that the early Celts were by no means deficient. The state of society gave but little encouragement to the study of domestic architecture among these nations, and the simplicity of their lives did not require the conveniences afforded by this useful and ornamental science. The little huts of the Gauls and the Britons were adapted to the wants of the people, but they were of too slight a construction to leave any very perceptible remains. The occupations of the pastoral life did not require the erection of permanent habitations: in perambulating a country, it is useless to bestow much labour on a building that must be soon abandoned. The freedom of a strolling life is congenial to untutored man. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
