Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from All-Over-the-World Library
It was not the intention of the author to make guide-books or books of travel of the volumes of this series, though he has incidentally related something about the countries visited. He has done so to some extent in this book; but he finds himself somewhat embarrassed by the fact that he has already pub lished twelve volumes of European travel, giving a brief history of every country visited and describing all the principal cities, and he is not inclined to follow in his own footsteps made twenty years ago, after visiting every country in Europe in preparation for his work. In a new field he expects to become more instructive The same general plan will be followed in the succeeding volumes.
