A Wanderer In Florence PDF Download

Excerpt from A Wanderer in Florence A sentence from a "Synthetical Guide-book" which is circulated in the Florentine hotels will express what I want to say, at the threshold of this volume, much better than could any unaided words of mine. It runs thus : "The natural kindness, the high spirit, of the Florentine people, the wonderful masterpieces of art created by her great men, who in every age have stood in the front of art and science, rivalize with the gentle smile of her splendid sky to render Florence one of the finest towns of beautiful Italy." These words, written, I feel sure, by a Florentine, and therefore "inspirated" (as he says elsewhere) by a patriotic feeling, are true, and it is my hope that the pages that follow will at once fortify their truth and lead others to test it.
