Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Mantle of the East Is an introduction or an apology necessary for a book of travel? For my own part I feel that so long as my reminiscences are "Stained with the variation of each soil" I shall be as pleased with them as with a pair of old shooting-boots, the nails of which, hammered in by some sturdy peasant of the Oberland whose door opens into meadows lush with globe-flower and campanula, have been worn away in the wildernesses of the back of beyond, the insteps purple with the indurated mud of mangrove swamps, the toes cracked with the attrition of the desert sand, the gaping seams and sutures shot with Himalayan mica, and the uppers charactered over from sole to ankle with the sharp camelthorn and the gorse of Devonshire moors.
