Synopsis
Excerpt from Travels, Vol. 1 of 2: Comprising Observations Made During a Residence in the Tarentaise and Various Parts of the Grecian and Pennine Alps, and in Switzerland and Auvergne, in the Years 1820, 1821, and 1822
It may, perhaps, be thought that it was unnecessary to devote several pages to the little Republic of Geneva, but a residence of two winters in that city, convinced me that though much had been written re specting it, the state of society there, was but imperfectly known in England, and had been much misrepresented.
