Book Description
From the PREFACE. After having read the interesting records of the original journal reproduced within this work, I prevailed upon Mr. William Henry Roots, M.R.C.S., the grandson of Dr. William Roots, F.S.A., the writer of the records, to allow them to be placed within reach of the general public. It will be interesting in the following pages to note the comparatively rude conveyances,, both by sea and land, of those days, that differ so immensely from those of the present day, but which had such a distinctive interest of their own that even the present ease of travel of these days is felt, in many ways, to be a loss. The French King's evident appreciation of the English, shows the value he set on his treatment in England during his exile - for the English had especial courtesy shown to them and frequent entree to places denied to others. Some interesting anecdotes will be found within the pages that follow, and an account of the presentation of colours - bearing the Fleur de Lys - in the place of the Imperial Eagles of Napoleon, by King Louis XVIII. at a time when there was great uncertainty how the army would act - in fact, Dr. Roots was advised not to attend the ceremony. The original illustrations by Dr. Roots' own hand are quaint and executed with considerable talent. Unfortunately, the expense of reproducing them in their original vivid colours and the substitution of black and white has eliminated some of their value, and, at least, a part of their vivacity.
