Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Handbook for Travellers in Switzerland, and the Alps of Savoy and Piedmont
The routes in the Handbook have been rearranged, as far as possible, to suit the convenience of travellers - all chan s and improvements in reads, railways, and steamers have been notice - and a vast number of new roads over little-known Alpine Passes have been described in the present and preceding editions. Plans of the principal towns are added. This edition is corrected as far as possible up to the time of publication, and contains notices of the railways which now bring Switzerland almost, as it were, to our own door.
An Index has been prepared for the Swiss Handbook, independent of the Section relating to Savoy and Piedmont; and as each is furnished with a map, the two parts may be bound up separately for convenience, without injuring the completeness of either.
