Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Book of Brittany This book is not to be taken as a Guide, consequently only here and there is to be found in it a detailed account of a town or a church or castle. The purpose for which it is written is to supply the reader with that which is not to be found in guide-books; the purpose being to prepare the mind of the traveller to appreciate what the guide-books point out to him as worth seeing. A French writer, M. Alphonse Allais, says: "What characterises the English tourist more than anything is the air of profound ennui which never leaves him from his arrival at Calais or Dieppe to the moment of his return to his native land. France visibly bores the Englishman; he is interested in nothing, listens with a distrait air to the explanations of the guide, takes a vague look at the monument or work of art pointed out to him, and never seems to arrive at any place save in order to go on immediately to another." This is true, but it is true because the majority of visitors do not comprehend what they see. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
