Description

Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes brims with Robert Louis Stevenson's wry and exquisite observations and his obvious delight in the farmers and peasants he encounters in the Cevennes, 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 The Guardian's list of one hundred best nonfiction books of all time. This Warbler Classics edition includes an extensive biographical timeline.
