The architecture, scultpure, language, literature, botany, archaeology, ethnology in this beautiful region call aloud for the specialist, who in each of these subjects will here find rich material for study, while the sportsman may spend many a happy day among these streams and hills." . ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall
