Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes (Warbler Classics Annotated Edition) -- Ro

<em>Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes </em>brims with Robert Louis Stevenson's wry and exquisite observations and his obvious delight in the farmers and peasants he encounters in the Cévennes, a region of south-central France that was remote and largely inaccessible in 1878. Modestine, Stevenson's much-adored but predictably stubborn donkey, sets the pace and becomes a central character in the account of this twelve-day adventure. Beguiling and charming, this pioneering travelogue lends itself beautifully to Stevenson's dry humor and razor-sharp reflections. Thought by many to be a slender but influential masterpiece of early travel writing, it ranks on <em>The Guardian's </em>list of one hundred best nonfiction books of all time. This Warbler Classics edition includes an extensive biographical timeline.</p><p><br></p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Robert Louis Stevenson<br><b>Publisher:</b> Warbler Classics<br><b>Published:</b> 02/21/2023<br><b>Pages:</b> 106<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.32lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.25d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781959891383
