Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Trip to the Tropics and Home Through America
These notes are extracts from letters written when I was travelling last year. I have hardly altered them, thinking they would, if I did so, lose whatever freshness they possess. They contain, of course, merely superficial views of the men, manners, and things that came under my notice but as the coun tries they refer to have recently been the scenes of important events, I h0pe they may not be without.
