Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Irish Peer on the Continent (1801-1803): Being a Narrative of the Tour of Stephen, 2nd Earl Mount Cashell, Through France, Italy, Etc
At this time there were special reasons to draw the world to France. The War of 1793-1801, the first phase of the Napoleonic campaigns, had precluded travelling in that country, and, taking into considera tion the disturbances there since 1789, it may be said to have been closed to tourists for almost a decade.
