    Hiking

    Wonderful public library in the old mansion. Great collection, especially old books, beautifully presented in historic rooms.

    Hiking

    The value that a society should attach to literature was described by the Irish-born writer and literary scholar Clive Staples LEWIS (1898 to 1963) – known as the author of the fantasy series "The Chronicles of Narnia" (for whose last volume he was awarded the Carnegie Medal for Literature in 1956) – as follows: "Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it. It enriches the necessary competencies that daily life requires and provides; and in this respect, it irrigates the deserts that our lives have already become."
