Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes

by Robert Louis Stevenson

Overview

Travelogue/memoir that begins "The journey which this little book is to describe was very
agreeable and fortunate for me. After an uncouth beginning, I had the best of luck to the end. But we are all travellers in what John Bunyan calls the wilderness of this world - all, too, travellers with a donkey: and the best that we find in our travels is an honest friend. He is a fortunate voyager who finds many. We travel, indeed, to find them. They are the end and the reward of life. They keep us worthy of ourselves; and when we are alone, we
are only nearer to the absent."
