' A Traveller's Guide
Through France'
Ralph de Rohan talks about this book, published in 1820 Ralph de Rohan recently consulted this book when he was planning a journey through France. He found that it gave information about travelling in a post-chaise, hints about where to change horses advice on matters of exchange and food, and some pleasing judgments on the character of the people. He talks about the book and the picture it gives of travelling in leisured, spacious days when a trip to the interior of France could scarcely be accomplished under a month or six weeks.
