There I went to Lewes where I met my cousin Percy Roxby.".Very legibly writen on 42-pages approx. 11000 words interleaved in a photograph album containing 42 half-plate photographs illustrating the tour these inserted 1 per page into the album leaves. The volume measures 10 1/2 x 8 ix 2 1/2 inches and weighs 1.8 kg.The writer has much interest in architecture especially ecclesiastical which is reflected in his choice of subject for many of the photographs."Mont St. Michel.I can and must say a little about the general flavour we obtained from our one-night's visit as it will linger long with me. We fully expected to find the little islnd so crowded with buildings and human beings as to be spoilt to us as a pleasure resort. We were absolutely wrong! Owing probably to the time of the year.we found the little island-town almost given over to ourselves and the rustic inhabitants. We had been led to expect crowds of English and much touting among the citizens. We found none of either.And it was principally owing to this fact that the most delightful 18 hours of our tour in Normandy to me was at Mont St. Michele. We put up at Nadame Poulard's of Omelette fame. The Omelette came to us at dejeuner; very good; but nothing out-of-the-way for France. Moreover we find that Madame Poulard has now retired and the whole establishment is in in the hands of a Company! We climbed up to the Hotel leaving our bicycles at the garage of the City at the foot of the mount. No bicycle could enter the City-proper. We climbed to the Hotel and then we climbed up from there to our bedrooms in an anex to the Hotel.". unknown
