Travels With a Donkey in the Cevennes

"Stevenson's cross to bear was Modestine, a placid, stubborn, manipulative donkey with a sweet face and a low cunning that he could never quite get the better of. She is one of the great characters in travel literature. In the course of his 12-day trip, Stevenson finds his loathing turning to love....With a light hand, he ranges far and wide, serving up odd encounters, random conversations, his own reflections on God and man, and the compelling trivia of travel....It is the best of all possible trips."Robert Louis Stevenson is the author of 'Travels With a Donkey in the Cevennes' with ISBN 9781582871288 and ISBN 1582871280.
