He made three trips to the continent, the first to the Pyrenees in 1787, the second to France in 1788, and the third, which included Italy, in 1789. He is unexcelled in relating personal adventures, in observations of the agricultural situation, and in descriptions of the many friends he met. He was near enough to the outbreak of the French Revolution to perceive that something unusual was astir, and ever experienced some personal contacts with the disordered state of affairs. He was known in England and France as the chief authority on agriculture, yet, as has often been pointed out, his own farming was a failure ... Especially pathetic is the story of his distressful mental aberration which darkened the close of his days."
