PREFACE
Thisbook does not pretend to be ahistory or a complete record of Galicia.Its purpose is to show something of thelife and character of a little-known partof Spain, and to deal with things seenand done by the visitor who travels undercompetent and comfortable guidance. Ihave written either of what I experiencedor on the authority of prominent residentswith whom I came in contact in mywanderings.
