About this book
A Day's Ride, subtitled A Life's Romance, is by Charles James Lever. The contents list chapters headed I Prepare to Seek Adventures, Blondel and I Set Out and Truth Not Always in Wine. A waiter tells a guest that young Lord Keldrum is there with two more for the fishing, and that Father Dyke, from Inistioge, is in the next room.
The narrator calls the Germans a strange, imaginative, dreamy sort of folk and asks whether someone would be struck by a notion so undeniably original. The narrator reaches Genoa in time to catch a steamer for Malta and keeps estranged and aloof from all.
