Download or read book Wanderings Before the War Classic Reprint written by W. R. Stather Hunt and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wanderings Before the War The material for this account was collected during the early months of 1908, and was arranged in the few spare moments of the next two and a half years. The book as it stands represents that material without any alteration or enlargement suggested by subsequent events; for example, in the chapters dealing with Serbia and the Provinces I was scrupulously careful to confine myself to the results of my own observation and to avoid any suggestion of the great change caused by the Annexation or of the increased harshness of the Austrian rule. The book was finished in June, 1911, but owing to the onset of a very long and severe illness, I took no steps toward? having it published for some considerable time. On reading it through after the lapse of four years, I find that any attempt at revision would need more time and labour than my health permits, and therefore mistakes remain which I would have wished to correct. For one of these I feel bound to apologise. Throughout I looked upon the Germans, as distinct from the Prussians, as a friendly nation. At the time of writing I believed that when the war came there would be no virulence on either side, except on the part of the Prussians. I am ashamed of the mistake, as I ought to have formed a better idea of the influence of Treitschke on all classes of the German Empire.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from West and by East This short and imperfect account of a trip I made in 1897 to Japan has been written primarily for the amusement of myself and of those with whom I travelled, with the idea that it may serve to recall scenes and incidents pleasant to remember. It contains nothing new and nothing stirring, but aims merely at being clear and accurate. Such is my defence for its existence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mantle of the East My wanderings in the East have been spread over ten years, but what one gains in insight during a long stay one loses in the power of conveying. The most illuminating books on India have been written by people who pass through, seeing everything with fresh eyes, yet necessarily sacrificing something of just truth to the preconceived I-felt-as-if-'a-page had fluttered out of the Arabian Nights attitude. That is the visionary gleam of travel. We lose it when we learn that truth is not always beauty. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from East by West, Vol. 1 of 2 There are few phrases in the English language more familiar than "Off Sandy Hook." It is a standing head-line in most English newspapers; and the fact recorded in the Court Circular that "the Queen walked out yesterday" is not a more frequently reiterated piece of information than that yesterday such-and-such great steamers were "off Sandy Hook." Like many other familiar phrases, it conveys to the mind no definite idea of the thing itself. It is only in the mighty leisure of a voyage across the Atlantic that one has time to formulate the question, What is Sandy Hook? "Why Rookery?"

Download or read book Australind written by Henry Taunton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Australind: Wanderings in Western Australia and the Malay East The men we saw were quite naked - being some distance from any settlement, - their skins were the colour of an over-roasted coffee berry or a very dark shade of brown, certainly not black; they were further darkened here and there by glistening patches and streaks of grease and dirt. The chest and upper part of the trunk were deeply scored across with parallel rows of artificial scars, which stood up from the surrounding skin in very strong relief. The tops of the arms and, in some instances, the thighs were marked with the same gruesome ornamentation, but in vertical and finer cut rows. Round the head of each savage was twined some ten or twelve yards of what looked like a coarse kind of worsted; but I learnt on inquiry that it was spun from the wearer's own hair by means of a primitive Spindle. A swathe of similar material encircled the waist, through which was thrust a carefully fashioned kyli, or some murderous looking waddy. A fine set of white teeth gleamed now and again through the black beard and long moustache as the aboriginal either smiled or used them on the food before him. The prominent jaws and overhanging brows marked a race which at the present day is very little, if any, more advanced than that which existed in the Flint Age.
