An inland voyage
"An Inland Voyage" by Robert Louis Stevenson is a travelogue published in 1878. The book recounts Stevenson's canoeing journey through France and Belgium with his friend Walter Simpson in 1876. The two young Scotsmen paddled wooden canoes down rivers and canals, encountering industrial landscapes, curious villagers, quirky innkeepers, and traveling entertainers. Often mistaken for lowly salesmen, they experienced a Europe of simpler times through romantic adventures and unexpected encounters along the waterways.
