Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Journey Around the World No one, however intelligent, could begin to tell the story of the countries and people referred to in this volume. This book sets forth the impressions made upon the author by the glimpses obtained in a journey around the world, and it must be remembered that im pressions can honestly differ among truthful, observing, studious travelers. This diary was written at the request of a loved one who was unable to accompany me, and with whom I thus hoped, in a small degree, to share my daily experiences, but with no thought of publication. Its publication is due far more to the encouraging suggestions of friends, than from any confident promptings of my own. The author claims no qualifications whatsoever as a writer, but endeavored at all times to keep his mind free from prejudices, and alert to everything about him, and espe cially endeavored to see the good in all things, but frank in his statements of facts as observed and noted herein. It was not, however, until we were bound for the Orient and had reached strange lands, inhabited by strange people, with strange customs, that I was aroused to any serious effort in the writing of a daily narrative in which I endeavored to reflect the conditions surrounding the writer, for examme: India, depressing; China, smiles; Korea, tragic; Japan, attractive but imperialistic.

At the request of many who read them, I have endeavored to put them in more compact and attractive form. I have made no pretense of literary excellence, or of a deep insight into the history, religion, nature, or habits of the people of the countries through which I have traveled. It would take years of observa tion and study to attain to that, and volumes to record the results. I have endeavored to give only a very imperfect pen-and-ink sketch of what I saw, heard, and felt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Working My Way Around the World After spending some sixteen years in schools and colleges, I decided, one spring, to take a year off and make a trip around the world. I had no money for such a journey; but that did n't matter for I meant to work my way from place to place. I spoke F rench and German, and had some knowledge of Spanish and Italian. I believed that if I had to work among the people of foreign countries I would learn more of them and of their languages than in any other way. So I was not sorry that I had to start my journey with only my camera and one hundred and four dollars for films.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Round the World: Including a Residence in Victoria and a Journey by Rail Across North America When his health had become re-established, he was directed to return home about the beginning of the pres ent year, and he decided to make the return voyage by the Pacific route, m'd Honolulu and San Francisco, and from thence to proceed by railway across the Rocky Mountains to New York. While at sea the boy kept a full log, intended for the perusal of his relatives at home, and while on land he corresponded with them regularly and fully, never miss ing a mail. He had not the remotest idea that any thing which he saw and described during his absence would ever appear in a book. But since his return it has oc curred to the Editor of these pages that the information they contain will probably be found of interest to a wider circle of readers than that to which the letters were originally addressed, and in that belief the sub stance of them is here reproduced, the Editor's work having consisted mainly in arranging the materials, leav ing the writer to tell his own story as much as possible in his own way, and in his own words.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Journey With the Sun Around the World Time flies fast; much faster than we imagine until it has gone. We look down the pathway of the years over which we have traveled and are surprised to find how close together are the periods of childhood, boyhood, manhood and more mature years. I realized this when the silver jubilee of my priesthood dawned bright and beautiful on July 21, 1897. I will not stop to describe the tender greeting of the children of the parish, as with music, song and speech they tendered their good wishes. It was an event in their lives as well as in my own. and long will I treasure the remembrance of the little ones of the flock. The people of the parish, as after events unfolded, had quietly prepared a great surprise. I discovered this as with the bodyguard 1 entered the crowded church on the eve of my sacerdotal anniversary. The transformation which took place after the morning Mass of that day to the scene that opened to my view brought to mind the wonders related of Aladdin's magic lamp. On the spacious stage, covered with plants and flowers, were many of the tried and true veterans of the parish, a number of non-Catholic neighbors and more than a score of clerical friends. The hand-clapping and applause with which I was received was startling, being unexpected in the church, even though the Blessed Sacrament had been removed. The excellent literary and musical program was a credit and a crown to the entertainment provided by the Executive Committee.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from All the Way Round, the Story of a Fourteen Months Trip, Around the World The lure of the Orient was upon us. India and the Far East were our objective points. But we knew that the Europe of today is not the Europe of yesterday, and as my husband's war work had not permitted him to see much of it while there, and as I had remained at home, we decided not to let the opportunity go by without visiting some of the famous places. During his long years of service as Mayor of Chicago Mr. Harrison's one relaxation was found in his fondness for art. Almost all of his spare moments when in Chi cago are spent at 'the Art Institute, and he had a long ing to visit again the famous galleries of Europe. This decided us. So one day we gathered our little clan children and grandchildren about us, had a royal feast and gaily bade them an revoir! We sailed from New York on a French liner - a slow voyage of ten days which we greatly enjoyed landing in Havre toward the end of May. We had had a beautiful sea voyage, felt in fine feather and made our first stop at Rouen, en route to Paris.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twenty Years Around the World Early in life the author of these letters suffered from ill health, and necessity obliged him to seek more genial climes in order to escape the rigors of our northern winters. Duty towards his only brother and a beloved uncle induced him to sketch his travels, and keep them advised of his movements. His letters passing into the hands of kind friends, for perusal, led to further inquiries and demands for publication in a weekly paper in his native city, were the result. He has always hesitated to come before the Public, although constantly solicited and urged by his friends to do so, as a duty he owed to society; at length, through constant i'mportuning, and to avoid the clamors of those he loves and esteems, he has concluded to accede to their wishes. This book is the result. Travelling becomes a passion with some, and in this instance, a decided one. Necessity at first, with improvement in health, and finding himself better on the move than when quiet, sight seeing and obtaining general information became more and more desirable. After having seen every State and Capital in his own country, his desire was to visit every Capital in Europe. After having seen the antiquities and works of art of Italy, Greece, and Tur key, his ambition led him to see the older objects of Egypt and Asia Minor. Then came the desire to visit the Celestial Empire, and the East Indian world. The West Indian Islands brought a disposition to see those of the Pacific, and those of the Mediterranean, the Levant, and the Polynesian, Canary, Cape de Verde, Azores. North America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Voyage Round the World Among the voyagers and naval heroes flourishing in the times of Queen Elizabeth, a high place must be given to Sir Francis Drake for his courage and persevering bravery, displayed in almost every enterprise, successful or unsuccessful, with which he was identified. His father is said to have been a poor yeoman, inhabiting a humble cottage at Tavistock, Devonshire, where his son, Francis, was born in or about the year 1530 or 1541; but having embraced the Protestant religion, he was compelled to fly into Kent, where, for some time, the family are said to have inhabited the hull of a ship on the sea coast. His family being in poor circumstances, and Francis being the eldest of twelve sons, he was early inured to hardihood, and was trained as a sailor from earliest youth. He was apprenticed to the master of a bark trading on the coast, and making occasional voyages between Zealand and France, in which employment he is said to have proved himself so painstaking and diligent, that his old master, having no children of his own, at his death bequeathed to him his bark and all its belongings. Ho continued this coasting trade for some time, but these narrow seas proving insufficient for his adventurous spirit, and fired with the idea of the possible wealth to be gained from an expedition to the Hew World, he gladly took advantage of an opportunity to join Captain John Hawkins in a voyage to the Spanish Main. Selling his vessel, he embarked his fortune and his person in this expedition at Plymouth in 1567. Drake's ship was called the Judith (50 tons), and which, notwithstanding the perils of the voyage, by skilful seamanship, he brought safely home. This expedition proving unfortunate, and losing all he had, he returned with an enlarged experience, and an increased and glowing hatred towards the Spaniards. On the 24th of May 1572, he sailed from Plymouth in command of the Pasha, of 70 tons, and the Swan, of 25 tons, the latter commanded by his brother.
