Book Description
Excerpt from Hither and Yon by Land and Sea I shall have to give only a rough and sketchy account of this voyage for many reasons. In the first place, much of it had to be hastily written without books, and in the next a so-called round trip is something like a tramp, the pauses being many but brief, and therefore superficial in the impressions they produce. But superficial impressions are often very vivid, and are etched very sharply into the memory, so I may hope to give you a few interesting pictures from the many that I collected. I have told you in previous travel-papers of the solemn dignity of Egypt, of the barbaric splendors of India, of the wonderful picturesqueness of Japan, of the tropical luxuriance of Mexico and the decaying glories of Spain.

Book Description
`I sing of knights and ladies, of love and arms, of courtly chivalry, of courageous deeds.' So begins Ariosto's Orlando Furioso (1532), the culmination of the chivalric legends of Charlemagne and the Saracen invasion of France. It is a brilliantly witty parody of the medieval romances, and a fitting monument to the court society of the Italian Renaissance which gave them birth. This unabridged prose translation faithfully captures the narrative entire and is a kaleidoscope of scenes and emotions of fact and fantasy.
