Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes - Pont de Montvert

from The Robert Louis Stevenson Library · host Robert Louis Stevenson

In which the traveller arrives at Pont de Montvert, a quaint southern town marked by its lively Sunday bustle and the intriguing presence of Clarisse, while reflecting on the subtle yet palpable distinctions of place and people that colour his journey. Here, amidst the echoes of fervent psalms and the shadowy memory of historic persecutions, he recounts the grim tale of François de Langlade du Chayla and the zealous Camisards whose fiery uprising forever marked this quiet corner of the Cevennes.
