Book excerpt: Excerpt from Daily Notes of a Trip Around the World The notes about India were written in India; every reference to the sea on ships - the writing was done every day as the journey progressed, and sent back to the newspaper Of which I was editor and publisher, as my part Of the daily work. The journey actually began October 26, 1905, and ended March 10, 1906; but travel letters never grow Old, if reason ably well done in the first place. The many commendations mine have received have resulted in this new edition. Original publication was in two volumes, usually objectionable to readers, and this fault has been over come by careful revision.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes of a Trip Around the World in 1894 and 1895 Soon after noon on the 3rd day of December, we saw, looming up high in the air in the distance, more than a hundred miles away, the silvery cone of the sacred mountain, Fujiyama; it seemed to us at first a shining cloud, so bright and white was it away Off in the sky. I can readily see why the Japanese so love the view of this mountain, rising as it does almost directly from the sea, its feet visible to millions of the people; first in the morning sun and reflecting its lovely pink rays at night as they see its last and highest point fade away from View with the declining day, it is something to love if not worship.

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 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.

Download or read book Aboard and Abroad written by Benj Walker and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aboard and Abroad: Vacation Notes in Ten Letters, Originally Published in the Lowell Daily Courier The following letters were originally written for the Lowell Daily Courier. They were intended only to afford a momentary gratification to the readers of that paper who might be interested in the little party of tourists whose adventures they relate. The letters have been so kindly received, and copies of the same so often requested, that they have been reproduced in the present form for private distribution. For their reproduction, special thanks are due to Messrs. Marden & Rowell, who have, with characteristic kindness and liberality, afforded every facility for this purpose. With the primary idea of brevity as essential to letters intended for newspaper reading, much has been omitted from the descriptions of places visited that could easily have been added. It has not been thought advisable to change the plan of these letters in this regard. The present opportunity, however, admits of saying a word with reference to the business and social characteristics of the English people. So far as my observation extends, English merchants and business men are uniformly kind and courteous. Their manners and methods, like the country and its buildings, are solid and substantial, and while evincing less of that "cuteness" which is attributed to Americans in general, and to Yankees in particular, there is an element of honesty, sincerity, and conservatism which at once commands, not only respect, but the highest admiration. England, as I saw it, assumes towards America the position of parent to child. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Working My Way Around the World After spending some sixteen years in schools and colleges, I decided, one spring, to take a year off and make a trip around the world. I had no money for such a journey; but that did n't matter for I meant to work my way from place to place. I spoke F rench and German, and had some knowledge of Spanish and Italian. I believed that if I had to work among the people of foreign countries I would learn more of them and of their languages than in any other way. So I was not sorry that I had to start my journey with only my camera and one hundred and four dollars for films.

This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.
