Letters written by members of a travelling party along the Loire compose a delightful travelogue and a dawning romance. It is filled with wonderful descriptions of European locales, a splash of adventure with cars and their temperaments, new on the roads in the early 20th century when the book was written (1902).

The authors, C.N. Williamson & his wife A.M. Williamson were well known authors & had books as well as travel magazines published. Some films were derived from their novels. - Summary by Adr6090 and Czandra
