Summary | "Two Pilgrims' Progress; from fair Florence to the eternal city of Rome" by Joseph and Elizabeth Robins Pennell is a travelogue written in the late 19th century. This narrative chronicles the experiences of the authors as they make a pilgrimage from Florence to Rome on a tandem tricycle, capturing the various sights, adventures, and interactions with locals along the way. The book is rich in descriptive detail, emphasizing their journey not only as a physical traversal but also as a cultural exploration of Italy. The opening of the narrative introduces readers to the Pennells while they prepare for their voyage in Florence. They face skepticism and warnings from friends who are concerned about the challenges of traveling with a tricycle, fearing the burdensome experience ahead. Despite the apprehensions, the couple embarks on their journey, encountering their first minor accident, the hospitality of the locals, and the delightful scenery along the River Arno. As they move past the bustling city, they capture the joy of cycling through the beautiful Italian countryside, while simultaneously revealing the camaraderie and charm that travel brings along with their own sense of adventure and determination.
