Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Trip Around the World: A Series of Letters In sending forth from the press books and letters of travel, a verj common statement is made that the letters, etc., were not written or intended for the public eye, but only for the enjoyment of the immediate friends of their writers. Without being able to say just the same thing, this much, however, is literally correct, that neither of the writers of the letters here sent forth, had any idea whatever of publishing a book; scarcely, indeed, of publishing even a series of letters for the Christian Standard, in which they appeared. As they were written and sent off from different parts of the world, it was always with the fear that they were very far below, in their interest and worth, the requirements of such a paper. It is no small gratification to the writers, to find that, where they had feared so much, the readers of the letters have enjoyed so much; and so many of them express a wish to possess them in a permanent form. Such as they are, we send them to the churches, greeting, but with much fear and diffidence. Did the readers know the real difficulties under which they were written, more than common allowance and indulgence would be granted for whatever faults may mar the letters, either in matter or style.
