Description
Excerpt from The Strange Adventures of Captain Dangerous, Vol. 1 of 3: Who Was a Soldier, a Sailor, a Merchant, a Spy, a Slave Among the Moors, a Bashaw in the Service of the Grand Turk, and Died at Last in His Own House in Hanover Square; A Narrative in Old-Fashioned English
IN the last century - and many centuries before the last; but it is about the eighteenth that I am specially speaking - long before steamers and railways, or even frigate-built ships and flying coaches were dreamt of, when an Englishman went abroad, he stopped there. When he came back, if at all, it was, as a rule, grizzled and sunburnt, his na tive habits all unlearnt, and his native tongue more than half forgotten. Even the Grand Tour, with all that money could purchase in the way of couriers and post-horses, to em pedite matters for my Lord, his chaplain, his courier, and his dancing master, took as.
