Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memoirs of George Selwyn and His Contemporaries, Vol. 1 of 15
I arrived here at five o'clock in the morning, last Sunday; had a fine passage of less than three hours; and travelled with the Prince de Nassau from Calais, without stopping till we got here, in the most abominable weather I ever saw. It scarce ever ceased raining during the two nights and one day we were on the road, and the servants were half dead with the soaking and fatigue they underwent.
