Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Journey Around the World No one, however intelligent, could begin to tell the story of the countries and people referred to in this volume. This book sets forth the impressions made upon the author by the glimpses obtained in a journey around the world, and it must be remembered that im pressions can honestly differ among truthful, observing, studious travelers. This diary was written at the request of a loved one who was unable to accompany me, and with whom I thus hoped, in a small degree, to share my daily experiences, but with no thought of publication. Its publication is due far more to the encouraging suggestions of friends, than from any confident promptings of my own. The author claims no qualifications whatsoever as a writer, but endeavored at all times to keep his mind free from prejudices, and alert to everything about him, and espe cially endeavored to see the good in all things, but frank in his statements of facts as observed and noted herein. It was not, however, until we were bound for the Orient and had reached strange lands, inhabited by strange people, with strange customs, that I was aroused to any serious effort in the writing of a daily narrative in which I endeavored to reflect the conditions surrounding the writer, for examme: India, depressing; China, smiles; Korea, tragic; Japan, attractive but imperialistic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Little Journey Around the World It is the fashion or rather old fashion to begin ones notes with an apology. I have no apology to make in keeping this record, it is written wholly for my friends and is something which I may refer to, to recall my wanderings. There are many reasons for taking a trip around the world, and leaving a pleasant home, family and friends. It should not only bring back health, but should be an education that will make one understand his fellow being better, to broaden his view and last if not first the pleasure one obtains from travel. The lights of Chicago were very dim through the tears that would come to our poor weak eyes as the Overland Limited pulled out promptly on time - eight o'clock. I cannot leave Chicago without a thought of her who has been a mother to me in a way for so many years, and when some rowdy fired a shot through the car window, missing a man's head by a foot, it brought to mind the many people who have grown up in Chicago through all its rioting, strikes, etc., to forget what law is, and when boys of ten and fifteen go around and openly defy the law, carrying revolvers as they wish, it is time a strict hand was placed over the city.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes of My Journey Round the World It needs some apology to add one more book to the library already published about journeys round the world; and could I not plead the excuse of having been persuaded to stray from the commendable paths of 'masterly inactivity, ' it certainly would have never been written. But this is not intended to be a volume of thrilling adventures or of tales profusely drawing upon the imagination; it is rather a volume of fact, briefly describing things as they exist, and its aim (if not too great a presumption) is to hint at just so much information as may entice the reader into following up any fancy in some larger work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from All the Way Round, the Story of a Fourteen Months Trip, Around the World The lure of the Orient was upon us. India and the Far East were our objective points. But we knew that the Europe of today is not the Europe of yesterday, and as my husband's war work had not permitted him to see much of it while there, and as I had remained at home, we decided not to let the opportunity go by without visiting some of the famous places. During his long years of service as Mayor of Chicago Mr. Harrison's one relaxation was found in his fondness for art. Almost all of his spare moments when in Chi cago are spent at 'the Art Institute, and he had a long ing to visit again the famous galleries of Europe. This decided us. So one day we gathered our little clan children and grandchildren about us, had a royal feast and gaily bade them an revoir! We sailed from New York on a French liner - a slow voyage of ten days which we greatly enjoyed landing in Havre toward the end of May. We had had a beautiful sea voyage, felt in fine feather and made our first stop at Rouen, en route to Paris.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My First Trip to the New World IN presenting to the public this little volume, I feel I am supplying a want felt by many, viz., a short description of a tract of country which far surpasses in the grandeur of its scenery most other places. Few, indeed, who have not heard of the Falls of Niagara, or read of the rapids of the St. Lawrence, the mighty forests of North America, and the vast plains, the Splendid rivers, and the beautiful lakes with which the Western World abounds. But to single out an account of each particular place from the various authors who have written on the subject, would be a task not within the reach of many; and I know of no work published in this country that contains an account of the places which I have in this little work endeavoured to describe. Before I left England for the United States, I was anxious to obtain some information respecting the tour I proposed to take, but after searching in vain through many libraries, I had to content myself with proceeding to America in ignorance of those places I felt a desire to become acquainted with.

Download or read book Little Journeys written by Elbert Hubbard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Journeys: To the Homes of Great Philosophers Kant HE canons of scientific evidence justify us neither in accepting nor rejecting the ideas upon which morality and religion repose. Both parties to the dispute beat the air; they worry their own shadow; for they pass from nature into the domain of speculation where their dogmatic grips find nothing to lay hold upon. The shadows which they how to pieces grow together in a moment like the heroes in Walhalla, to rejoice anew in bloodless battles. Metaphysics can no longer claim to be the comer-stone of religion and morality. But if she cannot be the Atlas that bears the moral world she can furnish a magic defense. Around the ideas of religion she throws her bulwark of invisibility; and the sword of the sceptic, and the battering-ram of the materialist fall harmless on vacuity. Lecture on the search.
