An Inland Voyage by Stevenson, Robert Louis
ISBN: 9781906780401 PUBLISHER: John Beaufoy Publishing Ltd FORMAT: Paperback / softback PAGES: 128 PUBLICATION DATE: 28.07.2011 DIMENSIONS: 19.56 x 12.95 x 1.02 centimetres
DESCRIPTION: Robert Louis Stevenson was not only a gifted writer; he was also an indefatigable traveller. His thirst for adventure was formed by his boyhood visits to remote Scottish lighthouses, and he spent much of his life fleeing the rigours of cold climes and social orthodoxy. Along the way he travelled through the Cevennes with a donkey, booked passage to and across America, and finally famously settled in Samoa in the South Pacific. The canoeing trip through Belgium and northern France that Stevenson describes in An Inland Voyage was taken in 1876, when the author was 26 years old. Stevenson and his companion, Sir Walter Grindlay Simpson, each had a kayakA"-style wooden canoe, with a deck and rigged with a sail. Starting in Belgium and then travelling downriver in France from Maubeuge (near Mons) to Pontoise on the outskirts of Paris, the book paints a charming picture of Western Europe at a more innocent time.
