Coles A Journey Due North: Being Notes of a Residence in Russia (Classic Reprint) at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Excerpt from A Journey Due North: Being Notes of a Residence in Russia I am bound on a stern, long, cruel, rigid journey, far, far away, to the extreme right-hand top corner of the map of Europe - but first Due North. And here I am at Erquellines on the frontier of the king dom of Belgium and this is why I thanked Heaven I was here. Not very far northward is Erquellines; and yet I felt as if I had passed the Rubicon, when a parti-coloured sentry-box, the counterfeit present ment of the peculiarly sheepish-looking Belgian lion sitting on his hind-legs, with the legend Union is strength, (and, indeed, I think it would take a good many of these lions to make a strong one, ) and a posse of custom-house officers - kindly, but pud ding headed in appearance - told me that I was in the Royaume de Belgique.
