Summary of Italy from the Alps to Mount Etna Classic Reprint by Karl Stieler PDF
Excerpt from Italy From the Alps to Mount Etna Only a few squalid buildings exist here close to the hospice. There are no other inhabitants except the men charged with the maintenance of the road. Six-and-twenty houses have been erected at the most dangerous points of the road, the use of which is to provide a shelter for wanderers overtaken by the snow. The watchmen pass their lives in combating danger for themselves and Others; for fearful storms rage here when the winds from Lombardy and Savoy meet, and rush together like two howling wolves. Such is the landscape of the Mont Cenis: we have endeavoured to sketch it in slight outline. And yet what memories Of great deeds hang round that dreary stony Spot! Of what antiquity is the first track across these heights, - from the days of Hannibal and Constantine, of Charlemagne and the journey to Canossa! We possess a description of the latter by Padre Bresciani, and our blood boils as often as we read it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
