Excerpt from The Pyrenees: A Description of Summer Life at French Watering Places
The valleys by which the northern side of the Pyrenees is approached, are generally from 25 to 30 miles long, running nearly parallel to each other in a southerly direction, and each terminating in a 'cul de sac,' which necessitates a tiresome return journey for those who cannot cross into the next valley by the higher passes, on foot, or on horseback.
In these valleys there is generally a river (or Gave,' as it is called in the language of the country), first a little rivulet or a leaping waterfall, then a roaring cata fact, or a wide and turbulent stream, according to the formation of the valley through which it forces its way to the sea.

Excerpt from The Pyrenees: A Description of Summer Life at French Watering Places
In the present volume it is proposed to describe, in familiar language, the scenery and summer life, in the Pyrenees, arranged in the form of a tour or visit, to the most popular places; and to do this as completely as possible, the Author has permission to introduce a few extracts from the work of a French writer.
M. Taines remarks, independently of their humour and picturesque grace, have a peculiar value in these pages, in giving the reader an assurance that ' summer life in the Pyrenees' is not represented from a one-sided point of view. In a few words introduced here and there, it will be seen that, whilst delighting in satirising his own countrymen, he thoroughly appreciates the beauties of nature, and enjoys the sunshine of the Pyrenees as much as any Briton.
