Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Travel From Different Lands The custom of writing a preface to any book which may be sent out into the world, is so universal, that I but follow in the footsteps of others in writing one for mine. These letters have been written at different times, some of them as far back as 1872. A few of them were originally published in the New York World. Many have appeared in the Times-Republican, of Marshalltown, Iowa, the present year. Often written in haste, and under great disadvantages, I do not claim for them great literary merit or descriptions of lands and scenes not often described by others. I have simply aimed to instruct a little, amuse some, and entertain the readers as well. If this little volume pleases my friends and helps to make others, I shall be satisfied. I will dedicate it to Hon. J. L. Williams, Gen. B. A. Beeson, Geo. B. McCord, Tom McElroy, E. H. Hibben, all of Marshalltown, Iowa, and to A. Casteller, banker, of Blair, Nebraska, all of whom have helped bear the financial risk of the publication; also to my wife, Eme Sanford, who, of course, regards this as the most wonderful work of the Nineteenth Century.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From Foreign Lands In my next communication I will refer to the medical situation in Turkey, but in the meantime will call attention to the fact that every person in the Sultan's dominions looks upon himself as a Specialist, since he fixes his charges in proportion to what he thinks his patron is able or willing to pay. There are no prices for anything in the country. The prices asked, even by the boot-blacks, the barbers and the bakers are such as the case is likely to bear and without sharp bargaining strangers get woefully eeced.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Over the Ocean: Or Glimpses of Travel in Many Lands We seated ourselves in the cars for York, passing through a more variegated country than I have yet seen. There are more hills and valleys, and now and then a high ridge by the road side covered with trees like those on the banks of the Hudson. All the rivers here are very small, not wider than our canals, and have not the beautifully wooded banks of ours. The Ayr has a tow path, and is used as a canal. We passed some of the most beautiful little dells with hamlets Situated delightfully on the rising ground. There would be a neat stone farm house looking superior to the tiled ones about it, and then the good substantial barns and out-houses surrounding it, and last but not least, a little stone church with its square tower and turrets, and perhaps a little rivulet which we should not deem worthy a bridge of any kind, spanned by a single arch, built of stone, with its sides over grown with vines and grass.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Travel Mam Later the same word, pursued on the same principle as that blessed one Mesopotamia, led me to and through Emerson, up to his poem on the peak itself - the wise old giant busy with his sky affairs, ' who makes us sane and sober and free from little things if we trust him. So Monadnock came to mean everything that was helpful, healing, and full of quiet, and when I saw him half across New Hampshire he did not fail. In that utter stillness a hemlock bough, overweighted with snow, came down a foot or two with a tired little sigh the snow slid off and the little branch flew nodding back to its fellows.

This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travel-Letters From Palestine and the East Every land is holy since God made, and is in and over every land. Still there is a sense in which only one land is holy. And that because its mountains and plains and cities, its fields, flocks and flowers, its peoples and laws and cus toms, are woven into every part of our Bible; because of those holy ones who lived and wrought there for us; and holy because of the divers times and places and manners in which God has here revealed Himself to His people, and through chosen vessels to all the world. But most of all, holy because of that Holy One who here had His cradle and home, His workshop, pulpit and school room, His Golgotha and Olivet. And because of the future when that strangest of people shall turn unto Christ, and when in stead of the ancient city of Jerusalem, now in ruins, the New Jerusalem, which furnished the last and perhaps the most beautiful picture of heaven, shall be let down out of heaven, may Palestine truly be called the Holy Land. To visit this land, walk its ways, commune with its choicest souls in their old homes and in the light of the Land to read the Book, is a privilege to be coveted by any one, and particularly by one whose sole work is to preach the Gospel here revealed. In the good providence of God this privilege came to the writer, and after due provision for home and church, with grateful heart, he left home on March the third for New York.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From the Holy Land These letters, written to my mother, and published chiefly at her request, can lay no claim to literary worth; their only possible value lies in their being descriptive of impressions received on the spot of that Land which stands alone in its character upon the map of the world. But the reader will more easily excuse the shortcomings of my pen than, I hope, he will ever do those of my pencil! I will make no apologies for the sketches, save to remind the reader that most of them had to be done in haste. They are necessarily considerably reduced in size in the reproduction, so as to suit them to the book form. It was a happy circumstance for me that my husband's appointment to the Command at Alexandria should have enabled us to realize this journey.
