Excerpt from Southern Spain

Few travellers have leisure enough to traverse the Wide realm of tawny Spain in its every part. Those who must confine their attention to a single province naturally select Andalusia, Where all the Northerner's preconceptions of the South find realization. The wild scenery of Southern Spain, the gay open - air life of the people, the monuments attesting the splendour of the extinct civilization of the Moor, the spell of romance which still holds its cities, makes this land one of the most interesting and fascinating in Europe to the artist, the archaeologist, and the dreamer.

The present volume, mainly the embodiment of personal impressions and observations, is intended partly to supply the place of a guide-book to this part of the Peninsula, and with ~that object I have brought together as much of history, art, and topography as the traveller is likely to assimilate. Into the descriptive matter I have introduced a little gossip, which will, I hope, be not found altogether irrelevant, and may serve to beguile the tedium of a bare recital of facts.
