| Summary | "Rambles in Istria, Dalmatia and Montenegro" by R. H. R. is a travelogue written in the late 19th century. The work serves as an exploration of lesser-known tourist destinations, encouraging travelers to venture beyond traditional sites and experience the rich cultural and natural landscapes of the regions mentioned. The author aims to inspire readers to find joy and interest in these less trodden paths. The opening of the narrative begins with a lighthearted conversation among friends debating potential holiday destinations. One character suggests Lapland, highlighting the allure of exotic travel, while another counters with the notion that there are splendid spots closer to London waiting to be explored. This sets the stage for the author's journey, as he discursively reflects upon past travels to Italy and his desire to uncover hidden gems in Istria, Dalmatia, and Montenegro. The author's amusing interactions also serve to critique the modern approach to travel, emphasizing a more meaningful and historical appreciation for the places visited.
