Northern Spain

IT is ill gleaning for a necessitous author when Ford and Borrow have been before him in the field, and I may not attempt to justify the appearance of these pages by the pretence that I have any fresh story to tell. Yet, if my theme be old, it is at least still unhackneyed. The pioneers have done their work with unapproachable thoroughness, but the rank and file of the travelling public are following but slackly in their train. Year after year our horde of pleasure-seekers are marshalled by companies for the invasion of Europe: yet it would seem that there are but few in the total who have any real inkling of how to play the game. Some seem to migrate by instinct, and to make themselves miserable in the process. These ought to be restrained by their families, or compelled to hire substitutes in their stead. Others can indeed relish a flitting; but cannot find it in their hearts to divorce themselves from their dinner-table and their toilet-battery, their newspaper, their small-talk and their golf. To them all petty annoyances and inconveniences assume disproportionate dimensions, and they are well advised in checking their razzias at San Sebstien, Pau, or Biarritz. But, to the elect, the very root of the pleasure of travel lies in the fact that their ordinary habits may be frankly laid aside. It is a mild method of going Fanti which rejoices their primitive instincts: and they will find both the land and the people just temperately primitive in Spain. Many of us have felt the fascination of Italy. But those who have heard the East a-calling tell us that her call is stronger still;and Spain is the echo of the East. Lofty and sour to them that love her not, but to those men that seek her sweet as summer. Even Italy, with all its charm, tastes flat to a Spanish enthusiast. He craves no other nor no better land. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
