Excerpt from In the West Country But those descriptions, marvellous as they are, were borrowed from books. It was not until fourteen years after that passage was written that the dream of forty years was fulfilled; that the author of At Last was able to see with his own eyes the West Indies and the Spanish Main; could, as he says, compare books with facts, and judge for myself of the reported wonders of the earthly paradise.
