Corsica In Its Picturesque
This two non-fiction tales find Stevenson on his travels, using his skills as a fiction writer to bring to his friend the joys and delights he uncovers as he travels around Western Europe, firstly with a friend and secondly with his beloved donkey. While I didn't find either of these overly inspiring from a travel point of view, they were interesting from a more historical and social context point of view. Generally a good little read if you like that sort of thing.
