Book excerpt: Excerpt from Highways and Byways of the Pacific Coast The several volumes in this series have as a rule very little to say of the large towns. Country life is their chief topic, especially the typical and the picturesque. TO the traveller, no life is more interesting, and yet there is none with which it is so difficult to get into close and unconventional contact. Ordinarily, we catch only casual glimpses. For this reason I have wandered much on rural byways and lodged most of the time at village hotels or in rustic homes. My trips have taken me to many characteristic and famous regions; but always in both text and pictures I have tried to Show actual life and nature and to convey some of the pleasure I experienced in my intimate acquaintance with the people. These Highways and Byways volumes are often consulted by persons who are planning pleasure tours. To make the books more helpful for this purpose each chapter has a note appended containing suggestions for intending travellers. With the aid of these notes, I think the reader can readily decide what regions are likely to prove particularly worth visiting, and will know how to see such regions with the most comfort and facility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Pacific Coast The purpose of the present work is to treat of the vast region of the Pacific Coast of North and South America as a physical and political entity, seen from the point of view of the observant traveller from jour neys extending over a number of years: a task never perhaps attempted before. The excellent recep tion accorded to my former travel books, dealing with some of the States of South and North America, is borne out by the pile of favourable reviews and of numerous letters from readers at home and abroad which I have; and the several editions which have been reached in a short space: and these seem to offer a measure of popularity for the present work. To those (few) reviewers who have objected to intimate descrip tions I would reply that these books, having at base a geographical purpose, are written to interest the ordinary reader and student of trav'ei-lgre, rather than for the scientist.

This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Trip to the Pacific Coast by Automobile Across the Continent: Camping on the Way Every motorist with rich red blood flowing through his veins, when he has a few hours to spare, heads for the country. The great open stretches of field; the soothing murmur of breezes passing through God's Temples - the woods; the gleaming stream and expansive lake; all bathed in golden sunshine, appeals to the primitive in man, as nothing else can do. He is eternally seeking out new roads. Places he has never before seen, because the spirit of adventure predominates and down deep in his innermost heart he dreams of some day starting for the great "Golden West." Everyone is familiar with the slogan "See America First." Let me add: See our great northwest and see it from an automobile if possible. If not, see it from the platform of an observation car. There is nothing in Europe so impressive as our "Wonderland of the World." The odd, startling, beautiful things you can see in our National Parks, Yellowstone, Glacier, Mount Rainier. Yosemite, the Grand Canyon of Arizona, and the splendid Forest Reserves, cannot be duplicated anywhere in the world.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Pacific Coast Vacation The phenomenon of the aurora was ex plained to us, but to our childish imagination Aurora ever remained a maiden whose wonder ful hair of rainbow tints lit up the northern sky. We talked of Aurora, we dreamed of Aurora, and now we are off to see the charming ice maiden of our childhood fancy. Off to Alaska. For years we have dreamed of it; for days and weeks we have breakfasted on Rocky Mountain fiora, lunched on icebergs and glaciers and dined on totem poles and In dian chiefs.

Download or read book Through Storyland to Sunset Seas written by H. S. Kneedler and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-24 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Through Storyland to Sunset Seas: What Four People Saw on a Journey Through the Southwest to the Pacific Coast Now this modest brochure is the recital of some of those things which one may see and learn on a trip from New Orleans to the Pacific Coast over the lines of the Southern Pacific Company. Every traveler will note points of interest and learn many new facts appealing particularly to him which have been overlooked or ignored here. But when you grow critical, remember that the author was not writing merely for our set, not endeavoring to supply an encyclopedia. All this would be dreadfully dry reading if put in the form of prosaic narrative, so it has been told in dialogue to break the monotony, and the characters introduced have a purpose related to the facts which are sought to be brought out. Nor do the people go to bed at conventional hours, as in most well-regulated books of travel; for if they did, the continuity of the narrative would be broken, and, like the Persian prince Who travels on the enchanted carpet, you might miss much of interest while they slept. The description takes you where the road leads - from the quaint his toric city of New Orleans through the. Bayou region of Louisiana, where summer lingers and poetry is the hand-maiden of romance, across the sugar and rice and cotton country, into the cathedral aisles of the vast pine forests. Then beyond, where the great plains of Texas reach to far-off sky lines, through quaint towns and cities, where foreign Speech and manners mingle with our anglo-saxon civilization. By the pillared Canon of the Rio Grande the way leads, and-past the sepulchral cleft which the Pecos has worn in the bosom of the earth. On farther yet are the dim blue mount ains and cacti-covered, tradition-fraught plains of New Mexico and Ari zona; the sand-girdled Gila and the implacable, mysterious Colorado that steadfastly rolls to its union with the California Gulf. Then comes the wonderland of the Pacific Coast - the jeweled, ower-begirt valleys and snow-clad peaks of California; the glint of azure skies and sapphire seas; of vine-clad hills and rose-embowered homes amid encircling groves of olive and of orange. Up the great San Joaquin Valley you go, and down the coast line, with many places of interest on the way to claim attention.6 through storyland TO sunset seas.
