Summary: "Glories of Spain" by Charles W. Wood is a travel narrative written in the early 20th century. The work explores various places and cultural elements of Spain, with a focus on the characters and experiences the author encounters along his journey. The narrative appears to blend historical reflections with observations on contemporary life, aiming to capture the rich tapestry of Spanish culture. The opening of the book sets the stage for an adventurous and picturesque journey beginning in Paris and continuing through various regions of France before reaching Spain. The protagonist reflects on the vibrant and often chaotic atmosphere of the Parisian Gare d'Orléans, amusingly noting the curious antics of travelers and the charm of the city. As the narrator transitions to the French landscapes and prepares to cross into Spain, there is a sense of nostalgia and anticipation for the experiences to come in Gerona and beyond. The narrative hints at the rich historical context of the locations visited, establishing a backdrop for the exploration of both physical scenery and personal encounters that characterize Wood's journey through Spain.
