Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Their Wedding Journey: With an Additional Chapter on Niagara Revisited, Illustrated by Augustus Hoppin
Hey first met in Boston, but the match was made in Europe, where they afterwards saw each other; Whither, indeed, he followed her; and there the match was also broken Off. Why it was broken Off, and Why it was renewed after a lapse of years, is part of quite a long love story, Which I do not think myself qualified to rehearse, distrusting my fitness for a sustained or involved narration; though I am persuaded that a skillful romancer could turn the courtship of Basil and Isabel March to excellent account. Fortunately for me, however, in attempting to tell the reader of the wedding journey of a newly married couple, no longer very young, to be sure, but still fresh in the light of their love, I shall have nothing to do but to talk of some ordinary traits of American life as these appeared to them, to speak a little of well-known and easily accessible places, to present now a bit of land scape and now a sketch of character.
