Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of a Steam Voyage: Down the Danube to Constantinople, and Thence by Way of Malta and Marseilles to England, 1842 On Saturday, June 26, 1841, at three o'clock in the morning, we left London for Ostend, with our two little boys, and a man and a maid servant. We had rather a rough passage, and arrived at Ostend at halfpast five in the afternoon. We dined, and walked in the evening on the Dyke, which affords a fine dry promenade to the lovers of sea-views and sea-breezes. There is but little to detain the tourist at Ostend; but those who have never yet seen any of the carved woodwork for which Belgium is so celebrated will find some good specimens to begin with in the spacious church. Sunday, June 27. - Sent the children and servants on by the railway to Brussels, whilst we stopped at Ghent to dine and see the town. The whole place was in a bustle, every one going to the races; English equipages rattling in all directions, and the English tongue predominant We fell in with several acquaintances, who tried to persuade us to accompany them to the course to witness the sports of the day, but we About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: A collection of anecdotes for each day of the year on the subject of travel and exploration from Charles Darwin, Michael Palin, Evelyn Waugh, and others.
