Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Souvenirs Atlantiques, Vol. 1: Voyage aux Etats-Unis Et au Canada
Il arriva aussi que deux hirondelles egarees vinrent se poser sur nos mats; les matelots les regarderent avec un interet superstitieux errer de cordage en cordage. Je les chargeai interieurement d'un message pour la pa trie absente; je leur disais d'aller placer leur nid a ma fenetre et, comme si elles eussent compris mes voeux, elles s'arreterent pendant quelques instans puis s'en volerent vers les rives de France.
