Book Description
This is the last book Beckford published in his lifetime (in 1835), and this edition includes his original diary made during his celebrated trip in 1794. This, and other evidence, show that the book was not based on a draft from the tour, but was the sudden production of an old man of 74.

Not illustrated. 1835 edition. Excerpt: ...to sparkle as before! Every soul in the assembly seemed to stand aghast, imprecating vengeance on the ruthless monarch, and feeling for the murdered innocents to their heart's core. Donna Inez was called for by my Lord Abbot, and embraced by his right reverence most blubberingly. The kindhearted Prior of St. Vincent's wept aloud, --I tried my best, though in a lower key, to imitate him; the Poet was lauded to the skies, and received from the fountainhead of all good within these precincts something more solid than praise--a richly embroidered purse, heavy and chinking, which he deposited in one of his lank pockets, after making a grateful profound genuflexion. "And now," said my Lord Abbot, "let us dry our tears and go to supper; and in order to give merit its just due, the Poet and Agostinho shall be of the party.

As sunshine so frequently follows dark and drizzling weather, nothing could be more blithe or even frolicksome than our repast.

So we all did; and it was at a very late hour of one of the blandest summer nights I ever experienced that we retired to our apartments. EIGHTH DAY. Too much of a good thing.--My longing for a Ramble.--Sage resolves.--A Gallop.--Pure and elastic Atmosphere.--Expansive Plain.--Banks of the River.--Majestic Basilica ofBatalha.--Ghost-like Anglers.--Retrospections.--The Conventual Bells.--Conversation...
