Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Through Algeria Tunisia: On a Motor-Bicycle When the wandering spirit stirs him, lucky is he who can yield to the lure. There are probably few people, to whom travelling is even remotely possible, who have not felt the longing to feel and see the romance unfolded by travellers tales. To all such this book is written. It is not food for the habitué of Algiers and Tunis: it is food for the babes and sucklings among travellers who will not be blasés at my naive discoveries and enthusiasms over things that the habitue knows too well; sometimes too well to move from the comforts and gaiety of Algiers and Tunis, with their hotels and shops. Still more it is not food for the explorer and serious historian or scientist. Still less is our excursion to be looked on in the light of an adventure threatened with brigands and wild beasts. Seeing that the roads of North Africa have motor services in many parts, and in all parts motors pass every day, and that one motor company have their cars driven by girls who have to return, after taking a party, alone, sometimes over 300 or 400 miles, it is not to be expected that anyone who knows would believe yarns of brigands and excitements of that kind. At the same time this winter(1921) there were some daring "hold-ups." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
