Excerpt from Narrative of an Excursion to the Mountains of Piemont, in the Year 1823: And Researches Among the Vaudois, or Waldenses, Protestant Inhabitants of the Cottian Alps I am not aware of any publication that has antici pated this attempt to call the attention of readers to the scenes described in the following pages, nor do I know of any volume in which the present condition of the Vaudois, and their former interesting history is brought under review, in the form which I have here adopted.
