Excerpt from Spain Revisited, Vol. 1 of 2Having been mainly instrumental, my dear Upshur, in inducing you, some years ago, by what I had written, to make the tour of Spain, it has occurred to me that, after so indulgently receiving my previous work of travels in that country, you might not be unwilling to accept the dedication of these additional volumes on the same subject. Perhaps, as your memory is a good one, you may not have forgotten the delightful journey which we once made together, from Syracuse to Ætna and Catania, a journey rendered doubly pleasant by the agreeable formation of our party, and the delight which ever attends a temporary escape from the necessary, yet somewhat onerous thraldom of a well-regulated man-of-war. Pleasant, however, as was the journey, and not less pleasing as is its remembrance, it was the only occasion in our long association on which we were likely to disagree.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
