Excerpt from In the Heart, of the Vosges, and Other Sketches by a Devious Traveller
Some of these sketches now appear for the first time, others have been published serially, whilst certain portions, curtailed or enlarged respectively, are reprinted from a former work long since out of print. Yet again I might entitle this volume, Scenes from Unfrequented France, many spots being here described by an English traveller for the first time.

Matilda Betham-Edwards (1836-1919) was a novelist, travel writer and francophile. She was also a prolific poet and wrote several children's books. She corresponded with well-known English male poets of the day. She was born in Suffolk, England. Her interests ranged widely but a major commitment of her life and work was to France and the French. She considered France her second native land and made it her mission to bring about better understanding and sympathy between the two countries which shared her allegiance.
