Pages : 388
Book Description
Excerpt from Memories of Forty Years I have begun these wanderings into a past full of agreeable hours with my impressions of England and the English. My motive has been twofold. First, because my book being published in England it should be of particular interest to English-speaking peoples to read a foreigner's impressions. My second reason is that I have the sincere conviction that nowhere as in England exists such a spirit of all-round good fellow ship and toleration. The second part of my book concerns itself with Germany, my home for many years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
