Excerpt from The Nile Without a Dragoman
IN the spring of 1869, I received my doctor's orders to go to Bad Gastein. Chilled by the cold, and wearied by the length of the preceding winter, my wife and I resolved to shirk the following one, or, at least, to pass it in some southern climate.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand.
