The Eastern Shores of the Adriatic in 1863: With a Visit to Montenegro is a travelogue written by Emily Anne Beaufort Smythe, also known as Lady Strangford, and published in 1864. The book details Lady Strangford’s journey through the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea, including visits to various cities and towns along the way. Lady Strangford describes the landscape, culture, and people she encounters during her travels, providing a vivid and detailed account of the region. She also includes information on the political climate of the time, including the tensions between various Balkan states and the Ottoman Empire. One of the highlights of the book is Lady Strangford’s visit to Montenegro, a small Balkan country that was then relatively unknown to Westerners. She provides a fascinating account of the country’s history, customs, and people, and her descriptions of the stunning natural beauty of the region are particularly memorable. Overall, The Eastern Shores of the Adriatic in 1863 is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the cultural and political landscape of the Balkans in the mid-19th century. It is also an engaging and informative travelogue that will appeal to anyone interested in the history and culture of the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
