Summary "A Tour Through Some Parts of France, Switzerland, Savoy, Germany and Belgium" by the Hon. Richard Boyle Bernard is a travel narrative written in the early 19th century. The book chronicles the author's journey across various European countries, specifically highlighting his observations and experiences as a British traveller amidst the transitions of post-Napoleonic Europe. The opening of this travel account reveals Bernard's eagerness to explore the continent following a prolonged period of war, which had barred British access. He sets off from London and makes his way to France, capturing his initial encounters with the customs and landscapes of the places he travels through. Notable mentions include his discussions with fellow travellers, experiences at customs, and the unique characteristics of French culture that strike him, such as their cuisine and dress. The beginning establishes a vivid contrast between Britain and France, setting the tone for an insightful exploration of early 19th-century European life.
