Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes - Across the Lozère
from The Robert Louis Stevenson Library · host Robert Louis Stevenson
In which the traveller ascends the bare heights of the Lozère, where the winds blow keen and the distant hills unfold a misty tapestry of history and heroic rebellion, recalling the fierce and devout struggles of the Camisards. Descending into a verdant valley clothed in autumnal splendour and accompanied only by a solitary child's call, he finds himself drawn into a land where the weight of past conflict mingles subtly with the peacefulness of a sharp and sunlit Sabbath day.
