Daudet brings out some anecdotes he has witnessed or told him, he tries to deform reality as little as possible. He makes us relive his native Provenza, the Provencal people with his soul, his overflowing imagination, his mirage, his malice, his joys and his sorrows.

En el transcurso de su viaje salva de unos bandidos a una diligencia. Finalmente, cazará un león. Aunque se encontrará con que era un animal ciego y manso que un par de mendigos usaban para ganarse la vida exhibiéndolo, por lo que es linchado por esto.
