And those who must stay at home may in these pages be able to look through another's eyes at the places described.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Cruise on the Mediterranean: Or Glimpses of the Old World Through the Eyes of a Business Man of the New To My Friend, Greeting: At the suggestion and earnest request of some of my friends, I have consented to the publication, in book form, of the letters that I wrote while on our Oriental trip. Through the kindness of my friend, Eugene J. Hall, these letters were published in the "Grocers' Criterion" during last winter and spring. My motive for writing these letters was that my family and intimate friends might, in a measure, enjoy some of the pleasures and benefits of a trip of great historic interest. To my son, Phelps, I am indebted for some of the results of his camera; to my good wife, for her encouragement and approval; to Poole Brothers, printers, for superior work in illustrations; to Eugene J. Hall for looking after the details and business features of the publication. As to my time and the expense of publication, my reward will be ample, should my friends accept this token of friendship and find in its perusal the pleasure that I could wish for.

Download or read book Night Trains written by Andrew Martin and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2017-02-09 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Night trains have long fascinated us with the possibilities of their private sleeping compartments, gilded dining cars, champagne bars and wealthy travellers. Authors from Agatha Christie to Graham Greene have used night trains to tell tales of romance, intrigue and decadence against a rolling background of dramatic landscapes. The reality could often be as thrilling: early British travellers on the Orient Express were advised to carry a revolver (as well as a teapot). In Night Trains, Andrew Martin attempts to relive the golden age of the great European sleeper trains by using their modern-day equivalents. This is no simple matter. The night trains have fallen on hard times, and the services are disappearing one by one. But if the Orient Express experience can only be recreated by taking three separate sleepers, the intriguing characters and exotic atmospheres have survived. Whether the backdrop is 3am at a Turkish customs post, the sun rising over the Riviera, or the constant twilight of a Norwegian summer night, Martin rediscovers the pleasures of a continent connected by rail. By tracing the history of the sleeper trains, he reveals much of the recent history of Europe itself. The original sleepers helped break down national barriers and unify the continent. Martin uncovers modern instances of European unity - and otherwise - as he traverses the continent during 'interesting times', with Brexit looming. Against this tumultuous backdrop, he experiences his own smaller dramas, as he fails to find crucial connecting stations, ponders the mystery of the compartment dog, and becomes embroiled in his very own night train whodunit.

Download or read book Orientalism written by Edward W. Said and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than three decades after its first publication, Edward Said's groundbreaking critique of the West's historical, cultural, and political perceptions of the East has become a modern classic. In this wide-ranging, intellectually vigorous study, Said traces the origins of "orientalism" to the centuries-long period during which Europe dominated the Middle and Near East and, from its position of power, defined "the orient" simply as "other than" the occident. This entrenched view continues to dominate western ideas and, because it does not allow the East to represent itself, prevents true understanding. Essential, and still eye-opening, Orientalism remains one of the most important books written about our divided world.
