Synopsis
Over The Pyrenees Into Spain by Mary Eyre. This travelogue recounts Eyre's arduous, vivid journey across France to the Pyrenees and into Spain, including a perilous crossing of Andorre and the Ariège, and a lengthy stay in Foix, Ax, Hospitalet, the Seu D'Urgel, Calaf, Barcelona, Madrid, Granada, Alicante, and Perpignan. Eyre describes scenery, flora, and local life, from mountain passes and lavender-scented vales to Moorish-domed towns and grand Alpine-like vistas, interlacing botanical notes with keen observations of hospitality, manners, and social conditions. The narrative moves between lyrical appreciation of landscapes, practical travel detail, and moral commentary on gender, class, and national character in Spain and its border zones. Eyre notes the challenges of traveling alone as a woman, details the comforts and cruelties of inns and muleteers, and records her personal perseverance in illness and hardship. The Preface to this companion work, following A Lady's Walks in the South of France, signals Eyre's intention to offer another vivid Spanish journey.
