A Winter in the Azores V1: And a Summer at the Baths of the Furnas is a travelogue written by Joseph Bullar in 1841. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part describing the author's experiences during a winter spent in the Azores, a group of islands in the Atlantic Ocean. Bullar writes about the island's natural beauty, its people, and their customs and traditions. He also describes the difficulties of living in a remote and isolated place, particularly during the winter months.The second part of the book details Bullar's summer spent at the Baths of the Furnas, a spa town on the island of S�����o Miguel in the Azores. Here, he describes the healing properties of the hot springs and the various activities available to visitors, such as hiking and fishing. Bullar also writes about the social life at the baths and the people he meets there.Overall, A Winter in the Azores V1: And a Summer at the Baths of the Furnas provides a fascinating glimpse into life in the Azores during the mid-19th century. It is a valuable resource for those interested in the history and culture of the Azores, as well as for travelers looking for a unique and off-the-beaten-path destination.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
