Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from My First Visit to Europe: Or Sketches of Society, Scenery, and Antiquities, in England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland, and France
Those who object that enough has been written, do not consider, that Europe is like a vast mine; the more it is explored, the more inviting it becomes. Gems of beauty, ruins or scenery, present an ever-varying phase to the eye of travellers, because never viewed from the same point of light. Thus minds, like mirrors of different shape, reflect a hundred images of one object. Who does not love to look often at pictures of friends and favourite scenes?
