About This Book

A collection of travel letters recounting sojourns across England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Italy, Greece, and European and Asiatic Turkey. The writer blends shipboard anecdotes and personal impressions with practical observations about accommodations, local customs, and travel routines, offering vivid sketches of towns, monuments, and everyday scenes. The revised edition adds further journeys and provides a list of pensions, a bibliography, and numerous illustrations that complement the episodes. The tone is conversational and episodic, alternating personal reflection with useful advice for those contemplating a first trip across the Atlantic.
