The Night of Fires: And Other Breton Studies

Excerpt from The Night of Fires: And Other Breton StudiesThat land of pardons, of which the earlier book treated, has become more or less familiar to English and American travellers. But the Brittany of which the present book tells is still comparatively unknown, and when, quite lately, I passed through it, following in the steps of the great Breton author, I found the country almost as primitive, and fully as picturesque, as in those dark ages when as yet bicycles and motors were not.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
