This book is not a serious contribution to travel-literature. [The author has] made no attempt to interpret the way of life in the lands [he has] visited or even to describe the beauties of nature and the works of art to be found there. [His] intention is only to record [his] own experiences in a number of places to which curiosity or circumstances ... have taken [him] ... In order to give some form to these disconnected ancecdotes [the author has] arranged them alphabetically, place by place. -Prologue No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Independent scholars like Runciman are very rare these days. Certainly scholars that were so well connected to the British establishment are very rare. If you enjoyed any of his books, "History of Crusades", "Sicilian Vespers", you should enjoy "A Traveller's Alphabet". ( )
