The Pilgrim of Castile; or, El Pelegrino in Su Patria

The Pilgrim of Castile follows the life of an interesting traveler through Spain eager to learn and grow. Excerpt: “Upon the shore of Barcelona, between the planks of a ship which had suffered wreck, there appeared as if it had been a parcel of cloth covered with weed: which being perceived by some fishermen, they took it into their bark and carried it along the shore about the space of two miles, where under the shade of some trees, they cleaned away the weeds and mud, and found that it was a man in a trance, who was almost past sense, and without life.”
