These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Over the Ocean - or, Sights and Scenes in Foreign Lands: Look inside the book: The great banking-house of Baring Brothers & Co., whose correspondents and connections are in every part of the world,—whose superscriptions I used to direct in a big, round hand, upon thin envelopes, when I was a boy in a merchant's counting-room, and whose name is as familiar in business mouths as household words,—it would be supposed would be found occupying a structure for their banking-house like some of the palatial edifices on Broadway, or the solid granite buildings of State Street, where you may imagine that you could find out about everything you wished to know about London; what the sights were to see; which was the best hotel for Americans; what you ought to pay for things; how to get to Windsor Castle, or the Tower, &c. ...The latter are civil enough, but, as previously mentioned, they do 'business,' and on the rigid English plan; they will cash your check less commission, answer a question, or send a ticket-porter to show you the way out into Lombard Street, or, perhaps, if you send your card in to the managing partner's room, he will admit you, and will pause, pen in hand, from his writing, to bid you good morning, and wait to know what you have to say; that is, if you have no other introduction to him or his house than a thousand or two pounds to your credit in their hands, which you intend drawing out on your letter of credit.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Over the Ocean: Or Sights and Scenes in Foreign Lands The following pages are the record of the fruition of years of desire and anticipation; probably the same that fills the hearts of many who will read them - a tour in Europe. The habits of observation, acquired by many years' constant occupation as a journalist, were found by the author to have become almost second nature, even when the duties of that profession were thrown aside for simple gratification and enjoyment; consequently, during a journey of nearly seven months, which was enjoyed with all the zest of a first tour, the matter which composes this volume was prepared. Its original form was in a series of sketches in the columns of the Boston Commercial Bulletin. In these the writer attempted to give as vivid and exact an idea of the sights and scenes which he witnessed as could be conveyed to those who had never visited Europe.

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.
