Excerpt from The Works of Charles Lever, Vol. 2: The Knight of Gwinne, And, Davenport DunnThere was something very gipsy-like in this roving uncertain existence, that had no positive bent or limit, and left every choice of place an open question, that gave me intense enjoyment. It opened to me views of Continental life, scenery, people, and habits I should certainly never have attained to by other modes of travel.Not only were our journeys necessarily short each day, but we frequently sojourned in little villages, and out of the world spots where, if pleased by the place itself, and the accommodation afforded, we would linger on for days, having at our disposal the total liberty of our time, and all our nearest belongings around us.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
