Explore Europe through the eyes of two American travelers as they tour legendary castles, alpine peaks, and cosmopolitan cities.
This travelogue follows a memorable journey that blends history, humor, and discovery, with a focus on places like Hawarden and the Mont Blanc region.
From the stately halls of Hawarden Castle to the daunting heights of the Alps, the book offers vivid scenes of grand estates, old fortresses, and scenic drives. It captures conversations, local curiosities, and the simple wonder of seeing famous places through fresh eyes, all told with a light, engaging voice.- Visit Hawarden with its modern and ancient castle contrasts, its “Temple of Peace” study, and the parkland that surrounds it.
- Relive the climb to Mont Blanc, the glacier, and Chamounix, with descriptions of the landscape, the rope of memories, and the thrill of high country travel.
- Wander among Geneva’s lakeside bustle, cathedrals, and cosmopolitan streets, punctuated by the travelers’ witty exchanges and cultural observations.
- Experience the humor and camaraderie of two Americans abroad, and the occasional cultural misadventure that adds warmth to the journey.
