Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from His Last Log
Were this its only merit the log would hardly merit publication, for it is simply the record of a ?ying trip over the beaten highways of European travel. Mr. Woodward probably saw nothing that had not been seen and described ad museum by every American sight-seer' who has had his little ?ing of travel, and come home to in?ict upon his long-suffering compatriots his impressions of Europe. But there is a difference between seeing and observing. Mr. Woodward's log is an exceptional tale of travel, not because he traveled over so much ground in so short a time, but because he observed so much of what he saw, and recorded so minutely, accurately, and entertainingly so much of what he observed.
