What do you say about being ready to start in six weeks? Orange-blossom made this announcement just before Christmas - of all times. I gulped hard, sat up straight, and gasped, South America! But why? Who under the sun buys books there? A kaleidoscopic array of monkeys, butterflies, orchids, yellow fever, revolutions and coffee chased madly through my brain - about my only associations with the other half of our continent.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from To Hell and Back: My Trip to South America Ell has been glowingly described as a popular and populous place and since I had so Often been told to go there I bought a ticket for South America. Chicago was our first stop. The city divides honor With bean-eating Boston as a windy burg, puffing itself up with pride over What it should be most ashamed. The herd Of humanity rushes here like cattle to Armour's slaughter house, to become food for jails, hospitals, poorhouses, asylums and cemeteries. Shelley - said Hell was a city very much like London, but then he never saw Chicago. From what I saw and heard, If Christ came to Chicago he must have left on the next train.

This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Below the Equator, the Story of a Tour Through the Countries of South America Our voyage down the South Seas began at the Isthmus of Panama, and it is difficult to write without dwelling at least briefly on the wonders of the great Canal. Never has the immensity of government work impressed me so much as there. Never has the importance of that work so forced itself upon my mind. From a jungle has sprung a beautiful land teeming with rich cultivation, with busy people. In place of a pestilential hole of death there now smiles a land of health and prosperity. We thrilled with the pride of its accomplishment, and we gloried in belonging to a country that had made all this possible. In this little book on our South American travels there is no place to tell of these wonders nor of the many acts of courtesy and kindness that made our visit pleasant and instructive; I cannot refrain, however, from thanking General Clarence Edwards - Commanding General - and his charming wife, Consul and Mrs. Dreher, and Mr. and Mrs. Samuel M. Heald, for the splendid hospitality they extended to us. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Across Unknown South America, Vol. 1 of 2 South America is, to my mind, the Coming Conti nent -the Continent of the future. Everybody knows the wealth of the Argentine, Peru, Chile, and Bolivia; but the interior of Brazil, the largest and richest country of all, not unlike forbidden Tibet, was perhaps better known a century or two ago than now. Few people realize that Brazil is larger than the United States of North America, Germany, Portugal, and a few other countries taken together. The interior is practically a term incognita - although the ancient Jesuits and, at a later date, escaped slaves and native rubber collectors have perhaps found their way inland to a considerable distance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trade and Travel in South America As I still believe that prefaces are more frequently passed over than read, this book has no preface, but it has a distinct object which will soon be manifest; and as facts, shipping, commercial and geographical, may be regarded by the majority of Britons as dry and uninteresting, I desire to so intermix those contained in this volume with the story of my travels round South America, and some of the stories one hears e72 voyage, that the facts, being food for the mind, may come as an agreeable and delightful solid after a light and pleasant entree. To ask you to credit all the yarns re-told would be to make too great a demand upon your credulity. Some are true, others you willjudge of, and all I trust will be found entertaining, tho' the keen wits of my readers may discover some fossils amongst them. The one great fact I have had seared into my mind as with a branding iron, in ajourney covering miles by sea and land, in intimate touch with the trade and commerce of a large and important continent, is.

Download or read book The Future of South America Classic Reprint written by Roger Ward Babson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Future of South America Owing to the many exceedingly useful books on Latin America already published, I hesitate somewhat in preparing another. Most if not all of the books now issued, however, are written either for the traveler or the historian, without special appeal to commercial and industrial interests. In view of this I have, during the past few years, been systematically collecting information regarding Latin America which should be of service to those looking at this continent from a moneymaking, rather than from an historical, point of view. Although I have personally visited most of the countries of South America, I do not pose as a traveler. My visits have been short, on strictly business missions, and some of the cities about which I have written pages I have been in but a short time. Therefore I do not attempt to compete with the seasoned traveler nor the man who has spent many years in these southern republics. On the other hand, experience with statistics has taught me that often the man who sees countries at a distance, one in comparison with another, gets a truer perspective than one who has spent his life in a given spot.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in Mexico, South America, Etc, Vol. 1 H was, I well remember, one of the murkiest of November evenings in the year 1851 that the then-gigantic Oronoko passed through the Needles, slackened her speed for a moment to allow the pilot to descend to his boat, and con tinned her course toward the far West, plunging heavily as she encountered the deep-water swell rolling in from the Channel. The attention of every one on deck was soon afterwards directed to the approach of one of her homeward-bound sisters, scarcely discernible, excepting by her lights. For the moment the aggregate roar of winds, waves, steam, canvas, cordage, and com mand seemed to be forgotten, and, in a silence that would make itself be felt, we distinctly heard the words All right given in a clear, ringing voice from her main deck as she came up abreast of us, and then rapidly disappeared in the darkness. We descended to our berths, after having been put in possession, by means of. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
