Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Travelling Sketches on the Sea-Coasts of France: With Beautifully Finished Engravings; From Drawings by Clarkson Stanfield, Esq. It is commonly supposed that the local attachments of a mountaineer are stronger than those of a lowlander; and the cause is referred to the fact of the scenery in the midst of which they are born being more remarkable and impressive in the one case than in the other. The emigrant highlander carries abroad with him, wherever he may wander, the indelible impressions, received in infancy and deepened by time, of that "Land of brown heath and shaggy wood - Land of the mountain and the flood," where his moral affections were unconsciously associated with objects not easily confounded with new ones. The dweller of the plains, on the contrary, roams into other plains that resemble his own. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
