Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Highway in the Wilderness: 1907-1908 Proem. Let the blow fall soon or late, Let what will be o´er me; Give the face of earth around, And the road before me. Wealth I ask not, hope nor love, Nor a friend to know me; All I ask, the heaven above And the road below me. R. L. Stevenson. At the outset of his fascinating book, entitled The Old Road, Mr. Hilaire Belloc discusses some of those primal things, such as a Fire, a Roof, or a Road, which possess strange power to move our imagination and emotion. "Fire has the character of a free companion that has travelled with us from the first exile; only to see a fire, whether he need it or no, comforts every man. Again, to hear two voices outside at night after a silence, even in crowded cities, transforms the mind. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
