Excerpt
Of the four summers which the writer of this ’Chronicle of
the Wayside and
Waterside’ spent by Aquitanian rivers, the greater part of
two provided the
impressions that were used in ‘Wanderings by Southern
Waters.’ Although
the earlier pages of the present work, describing the wild district
of the
Upper Dordogne, through which the author passed into Guyenne,
belong, in
the order of time, to the beginning of his scheme of travel in
Aquitaine,
the summers of 1892 and 1893, spent chiefly in Périgord and
the Bordelais,
furnished the matter of which this volume is mainly composed.
Hence the
title that has been given to it.
