| Summary | "Le Tour de l'Espagne en Automobile" by Pierre Marge is a travelogue written in the early 20th century. This work combines personal narrative and detailed observations as the author embarks on an adventurous journey across Spain by automobile, facing challenges and encountering various landscapes, cultures, and people. It captures the spirit of exploration during an era when automobiles were becoming increasingly popular for travel. The opening of the book presents the author's preparations for a trip to Spain in the summer, despite warnings from others about the extreme heat and poor conditions expected. Marge expresses determination and enthusiasm for the journey, which he views as an opportunity for adventure and discovery. He sets off from Montpellier, documents the landscapes he encounters along the way, and describes his first impressions as he approaches and crosses the border into Spain. The narrative is rich with vivid descriptions of towns like Narbonne and Béziers, the natural beauty of the countryside, and the challenges faced while traveling through changing terrains, all while balancing moments of humor and cultural reflection.
