OFF THE MAIN ROAD.—“.The Road to Barcelona and the Costa Brava,” by Stanley Baron, is intended primarily for those who are able to make this journey from the English Channel to the Mediterranean, showing them how they may get off the beaten path to find now delights and yet not miss any of the better-known sights, and telling them where they may find good food and wine. But anyone interested in travel will find it a charming and enticing book, beautifully illustrated. The photographs reprinted above show a beach on the Costa Brava and a contrast in ecclesiastical architecture, the noble Chartres Cathedral with the old town at its feet and the striking modern church of La Sagrada Familia at Barcelona. The publishers are Eyre and Spottiswoode.
