A Freak Of Freedom Or The Republic Of San Marino Classic Reprint

Excerpt from A Freak of Freedom, or the Republic of San Marino Though not offering the sight-seer attrae tions such as the rest of Italy possesses, San Marino affords plenty of natural charms of wildness and simplicity; for whilst the views combine some of the most fantastic peaks of the Umbrian Mountains, the study of their private life and customs leads one to agree with their own favourite simile, Here we live and die, like the flowers of the field.' The few illustrations introduced herein are from some of my own sketches taken on the spot. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
