"Belongs in that small class of books of observation which are also books of artistic and spiritual interpretation; which not only describe places and monuments, but convey an impression of peoples, a sense of society, with the elusive atmosphere in which everything of historical or artistic value is seen by those who have the gift of sight." ―The Outlook.
