Taking the moral of the old story Eyes and No Eyes, Fitzgerald shows how much a sharp-eyed traveller can see in a short trip. He crosses from Dover by packet to Calais and hurries through Tournai, Douai, Arras, Béthune, Lille, Ypres and St. Omer, noting churches, squares, inns and the fantastic Flemish bell-towers.
A light, sketchy travel book, all the more poignant for its pictures of towns later ruined in the Great War. Download the free EPUB.
