The Chauffeur and the Chaperon

A motor tour of the Dutch canals and windmill country with a chaperone who is not what she claims and a chauffeur who is somebody else again. The Williamsons drove the route and the Netherlands in the book can be followed on a map. This edition is bound with sixty plates of seventeenth-century painting, among them works by Jan Brueghel the Elder, Jan van Goyen and Simon de Vlieger, showing ferries, homesteads and windmills.
