Klappentext

This travel memoir recounts Stevenson's canoe journey through the rivers and canals of Belgium and northern France. With his companion, Sir Walter Simpson, Stevenson captures the charm of the European countryside, the quirks of local inhabitants, and the serenity of life on the water. Through vivid descriptions and reflective commentary, the work offers readers a delightful blend of adventure, humor, and the simple pleasures of travel.

Biografie

Robert Louis Stevenson was born in Scotland in 1850. He was the son of an engineer, and he hoped to be an engineer himself. He began training, but his poor health prevented his continuing. Partly because of his health troubles - mainly tuberculosis - he spent a large part of his life outside Britain.
