Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From Abroad A few miles from the former place, we passed a picturesque gorge, which forms the present frontier between France and Italy. Characteristic differences soon appear, not in the country, as I have said, but in the prevalence of the Italian language in the notices on the walls and the names of the shops. The French authorities are doing all they can to banish the Italian from the annexed provinces. They will allow the celperz'ezcm, for instance, a license to sell Protestant bibles in French, but not in Italian.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From Abroad to Kindred at Home, Vol. 1 of 2 AN apology for a book implies that the public are obliged to read it; an Obligation that would reverse the order of nature - transfer the power from the strong to the weak. But, unfortunately for them, there is aportion of the public who are, in a certain sense, obliged to read a book - the kind friends of the author; and among these, I say it gratefully, not boastfully, I have the happiness to number many of my countrymen personally unknown to me. Of my friends, then, I ask indulgence for the following pages. They are published rather with deference to the wishes Of others than from any false estimate Of their worth. Our tour was made under circumstances which forbade any divergence from the highway Of all the travelling world, and.

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From Abroad to Kindred at Home, Vol. 2 of 2 WE have crossed the Alps, my dear C., and are in Italy, but not quite so easily as I write it. The weather is as much a matter of speculation to those who are about to make a pass of the Alps as if they were going to sea. This morning at three I was looking out from my window, and found it perfectly clear. My Old familiar friends were shining down on the valley of Lanslebourg, Orion on his throne, and Jupiter glittering over one of the mountain pinnacles. Now, thought I, we are sure of a fine day. But when Francois came round to our doors with his customary reveille, Gate cope, (francois always speaks English in the hearing of the natives l) the sky was overcast. We were early astir, which, though both healthful and good husbandry, is only the virtue of necessity with us.

There is' scarcely a spot in the Old World that gems the page of history or lives in the poet's song, where the foot of our countryman has not pressed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Budget of Letters, or Things Which I Saw Abroad Here we lay at anchor, the wind being ahead, and how long we shall have to stay is more than we can tell. We had an opportunity this afternoon to go up to the city with the captain, but we preferred to stay on board ship, that we may begin to feel at home before we get out to sea, for as you may well imagine every thing is strange to us. As we stepped on board this morning, our ears were saluted with sounds that seemed more appropriate to a farm-yard than a ship. We turned suddenly and saw a meek, innocent look ing cow, apparently as much out of her element as we were; and that she might have somewhat to remind her of her country home, sundry pigs were squealing near by, which sounds, ever and anon, were relieved by the noisy geese, the gobbling turkey, the cackling hen, and the quacking duck. From the appearance of this live stock, we judge that we shall want for none of the good things of this life, and with all this preparation for the body, the mind is not neglected.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters to the Evening Post Written at Home and Abroad, Vol. 1: 1869 The letters, contained in these two volumes, were published in the New York Evening Post in 1869 and 1870. Those in the first volume were written in Europe and those in the second after the author's return. The printing of them by his daughter has been indeed a labor of love, done with the knowledge that the book would be cherished by the family and inner friends of the author. These letters, off-hand and often times abrupt, were virtually the diary of a seven months' vacation. A journey begun in much weariness of body and spirit, after the struggle of life, faith, and work had been most bitter, but which brought with it an invigorating contact with great minds and the sustaining influence of a great faith.
