Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Summer in England: With a Continental Supplement; A Hand Book for the Use of American Women
The Women's Rest Tour Association was formed, in the Spring of 1891, with the design of helping, with advice and encouragement, women who might enjoy a vacation abroad if they but knew how cheaply it can be accomplished, and how easy the paths of travel may be made by confidence and common-sense. The present organization is one of mutual help and good-will. It is in no sense a charitable institution, but one which desires chie?y to encourage independent effort; it serves as a bureau, to which women who have travelled may bring the results of their study and Observation for the enriching of others, and where the timorous or inexperienced may apply for aid. It is a common complaint that the needs and abundance of life cannot be brought together; in the matter Of woman's travelling, the Rest Tour Association aims at acting as a medium between demand and supply by stepping into the place of confidential friend and adviser to women tourists.
