On Blue Water
Paperback
(Forgotten Books Dec. 2, 2017)
Excerpt from On Blue Water
It has been well said that the beauty Of De Amicis' travels is that they are more than travels. They are not merely the record Of so many passages a day; they are travellings plus seeings, listenings, feelings, thinkings, talkings, love-makings - all that a warm hearted, imaginative, educated young tourist would engage in; yet they are told without displeasing egotism or tedious detail.
