Before he became famous for his works such as Treasure Island, A Child's Garden of Verses, and other immortal works, he was known for his travelogues. This collection presents some of his finest writing in that vein, starting with An Inland Voyage. This 1878 chronicle of a canoe journey through Belgium and France charmingly captures the European villages and townspeople of a bygone era. Other selections include Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes, a humorous account of a mountain trek, and Forest Notes, a meditation on nature based on visits to the Forest of Fontainebleau near Paris and adjacent artists' colonies. These early writings offer captivating insights into Stevenson's bohemian nature and the wanderlust that sent him from his native Scotland to journeys around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 178g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 127 x 204 x 15 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780486829319                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Robert Louis Stevenson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44096199786746,"sku":"9780486829319","price":6.06,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/2d983d12788ce919f800fb751a591a6e.jpg?v=1627006017","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/travels-with-a-donkey-in-the-cevennes-and-other-travel-writings-and-other-travel-writings","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
