Résumé
With a borrowed rucksack, Patrick Leigh Fermor set off in 1933 from the Hook of Holland to walk to Constantinople. This sequel continues the journey down the Danube from Budapest; on horseback across the Great Hungarian Plain, and over the… Rumanian border into Transylvania, a wild beautiful region of forests and mountains secluded from Western eyes during centuries of religious and national complexity. He planned to live "like a tramp, a pilgrim or a wandering scholar" but found instead leisurely sojourns in castles. Sequel to "A time of gifts : on foot to Constantinople : from the Hook of Holland to the Middle Danube". 1986.
