Work originally published in 1907 under the title «The Road». This French edition belongs to the Folio Junior collection, with translation by Noël Chassériau and illustrations by Jame's Prunier.
Recommended for young readers aged 11 and up and for those who want to discover a classic of travel and adventure literature.
