ONE doubles his span of life, says George Moore, by knowing well a country not his own. Un pays aimé is a good friend, indeed, to whom one may turn in time of strife, and none other than Normandy-unless it be Brittany-has proved itself a more safe and pleasant land for travellers. When one knows the country well he recognizes many things which it has in common with England. Its architecture, for one thing, bears a marked resemblance; for the Norman builders, who erected the magnificent ecclesiastical edifices in the Seine valley during the middle ages, were in no small way responsible for many similar works in England.
