About the Book

" Si les Français ont autant de répugnance que les Anglais ont de propension pour les voyages, peut-être les Français et les Anglais ont-ils raison de part et d'autre. On trouve partout quelque chose de meilleur que l'Angleterre, tan- dis qu'il est excessivement difficile de retrouver loin de la France les charmes de la France. Les autres pays offrent d'admirables paysages, ils présentent souvent un comfort supérieur à celui de la France, qui fait les plus lents progrès en ce genre. Ils déploient quelquefois une magnificence, une grandeur, un luxe étourdissants; ils ne manquent ni de grâce ni de façons nobles, mais la vie de tête, l'activité d'idées, le talent de conversation et cet atticisme si familiers à Paris; mais cette soudaine entente de ce qu'on pense et de ce qu'on ne dit pas, ce génie du sous-entendu, la moitié de la langue française, ne se rencontrent nulle part. Aussi le Français, dont la raillerie est déjà si peu comprise, se dessèche-t-il bientôt à l'étranger, comme un arbre déplanté. L'émigration est un contre-sens chez la nation française. Beaucoup de Français, de ceux dont il est ici question, avouent avoir revu les douaniers du pays natal avec plaisir, ce qui peut sembler l'hyperbole la plus osée du patriotisme. Ce petit préambule a pour but de rappeler à ceux des Français qui ont voyagé le plaisir excessif qu'ils ont éprouvé quand, parfois, ils ont retrouvé toute la patrie, une oasis dans le salon de quelque diplomate; plaisir que comprendront difficilement ceux qui n'ont jamais quitté l'asphalte du boulevard des Italiens, et pour qui la ligne des quais, rive gauche, n'est déjà plus Paris. Retrouver Paris ! savez-vous ce que c'est, ô Parisiens ? C'est retrouver, non pas la cuisine du Rocher de Cancale, comme Borel la soigne pour les gourmets qui savent l'apprécier, car elle ne se fait que rue Montorgueil, mais un service qui la rappelle ! C'est retrouver les vins de France qui sont à l'état mythologique hors de France, et rares comme la femme
