Synopsis
Excerpt from Through Spain: The Record of a Journey From St. Petersburg, to Tangier, by Way of Paris, Madrid, Cordova, Seville and Cadiz; And Thence to Gibraltar, Ronda and Granada
It is unnecessary to say how to reach Spain. There is a sufficiency of routes to suit all tastes (and I thinki may add purses), and their respective merits and demerits can be ascertained from the various tourist agencies. I myself went through Paris, partly because time was an important con sideration, and partly because, coming from northern Europe, my route naturally lay that way. But if I were travelling from England, I think I Should choose the sea route, either to Bordeaux or to some Spanish port - the latter, for choice, so as to escape the fussy French customs.
