Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Andorra, the Hidden Republic: Its Origin and Institutions, and the Record of a Journey Thither Andorra is surrounded by some of the most magnificent mountain scenery in all Europe, yet the strange little valley is almost unvisited; and although the ancient republic possesses a unique historic and political interest, hardly any reliable information concerning this last lonely survival of mediæval days has hitherto been accessible to the English reader. What little has been written about Andorra in English is, almost without exception, superficial and inaccurate. This might be excusable in a brief chapter of some light description of summer travel in the Pyrenees; but most of the larger encyclopædias, to which the general reader naturally first turns for information about this out-of-the-way corner of Europe, are also confused and self-contradictory. For instance, one well-known work, under the three captions Charlemagne, Catalonia and Spain, actually gives no fewer than three different dates for the same event in the early history of the Republic.
