Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Finding the Worth-While in Europe To be hampered by a sense of duty is to destroy effectually the pleasure of a European tour. I mean by that if you visit merely the places you think you ought to see because they are famous, instead of the places you really wish to go to because they will interest you, then your trip will be spoiled. If you are not the least interested in pictures, it is a rather foolish waste of time to be bored by the galleries; and if you delight in old castles, why go to the modem cities? And if you want to find the quaint and medieval villages, where life and environment are completely at variance with your own, why not go there? Now in no sense is this book intended to usurp the place of indispensable Baedeker, nor does it profess to enumerate, much less describe, all that is worth while in Europe; no one volume could do that. Chiefly do I try to tell the reader where to go in each land to find the things that distinguish that land from his own and from other countries, the things that are unlike the things, or are better worth-while than the same kind of things to be found elsewhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ninety Days Worth of Europe There has been no period till now when we have had a smooth enough sea for me to write even thus ill. But really our detail has been little. It is just possible that a schooner may have announced that she spoke as Wednesday night. If she arrives at Boston, it will not be that she has not been sent to a hotter place by everybody who has alluded to her in our party (excepting me, who sympathize with her skip per, and am afraid I should have done just what he did). The skipper thought he was going to be run down, and fired two guns. This he should never have done, unless he were in distress; but, as he did it, gallant Capt. Leitch in all that stiff gale lay by, and sent a boat on board him, only to learn that his distress rose from his fears that he did not see him. So, as far as I can learn, he got quite distinctly con demned for his pains; and we proceeded again to our business of getting to Europe. By rigid con tinuance in it, we were able to take a pilot this morn ing: a very pretty and exciting sight, two pilot schooners vying for our custom, and the successful Bluenose having to pull a mile in his fine little dory over such waves as you never saw. By the time he reached us, his nose was as red as a peach blow. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Impressions of Europe The title of this little volume might well serve for its preface also. On his first return from abroad, the novice, possibly because familiarity has some tendency to blunt intuition and dim the vividness of national contrasts, is apt to be more closely questioned about his impressions than is the veteran traveler. Such impressions, however, while frequently they may be of value in disclosing new view-points, should, in many cases, be offered tentatively, and rather as personal opinions than finalities. Our journey was undertaken without pre-consultation of guide-books. When visiting a famous place, first the results of observation and direct local inquiry were noted; then Baedeker and his professional brethren were consulted, but merely for corroboration or a few essential statistics. We can recommend every step of the tour herein described to those entering upon their European novitiate; indeed, we have hopes that the book, with all its limitations, may prove a convenient vade-mecum to more experienced travelers, and help them to while away a few hours of oceanic monotony.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from What I Saw in Europe Francisco, thence to New York, and now among this group of strangers goes to Paris, where he leaves three motherless little children with an aunt to be brought up and educated, while be after a short visit goes back alone to do the Master's work. A French padre in New York, caring as he says for the souls of twenty-three thousand, returns to his native land, where as soon as his distressing cough is relieved, he may be sent to Japan or India, the Obligations Of his order, Fathers of Mercy, requiring him to Obey without a murmur, and go without even a questioning look. Here is a young American countess, a black-eyed girl, who married a title in France, and now finds, after her fortune has been scattered by her lordly husband, that wealth after all is worth more than a title, and she goes to her husband's people to persuade them to give to her a share Of the proceeds Of the sale Of a French chateau, in which part Of her dowry was invested. I pray her a successful mission. The vessel contains a microcosm. As the personal details of each are unfolded in the gossip of the ship, one finds the same wrecks, and the same high hopes that meet his eye everywhere.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Europe After 8: 15 Hungerberg, the night train for Venice labours toward the town. It is a superbly beautiful scene, perhaps the most beautiful in all Europe. It has colour, dignity, repose. The Alps here come down a bit and so increase their spell. They are not the harsh precipices of Swit zerland, nor the too charming stage moun tains of Northern Italy, but rolling billows of clouds and snow, the high-ﬂung, waves of some titanic but stricken ocean. Now and then comes a faint clank of metal from the funicular railway, but the tracks them selves are hidden among the trees of the lower slopes. The tinkle of an angelus bell (or maybe it is only a sheep bell) is heard from afar. A great bird, an eagle or a fal con, sweeps across the crystal spaces.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Supplemental Notes to the View of the State of Europe During the Middle Ages Thirty years have elapsed since the publication of the Work to which the following Notes relate, and almost forty since the first chapter and part of the second were written. The occupations of that time rendered it impossible for me to bestow such undivided attention as so laborious and difficult an undertaking demanded; and at the outset I had very little intention of prosecuting my researches, even to that degree of exactness which a growing interest in the ascertainment of precise truth, and a sense of its difficulty, led me afterwards in some parts to seek, though nowhere equal to what with a fuller command of time I should have desired to attain. A measure of public approbation accorded to me far beyond my hopes, has not blinded my discernment to the deficiencies of my own performance; and as successive editions have been called for, I have continually felt that there was more to correct, or to elucidate, than the insertion of a few foot notes would supply; while I was always reluctant to make such alterations as would leave to the purchasers of former editions a right to complain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heart of Europe And in all these places, and by all these men (and elsewhere, endlessly, and by hands un numbered), two thousand years had wrought their visible manifestation in abbey, church, and cathedral; in manor and palace and castle, in trade hall and civic hall, and in library and semi nary and school. Wars, great and small, have swept it from river to river, but much has been free for a cen tury and all of it free for forty years. Under every oppression and every adversity it has thriven and grown rich, not in material things alone, but in those commodities that have ac tual intrinsic value; and a short year ago it was the most prosperous, peaceful, and industrious quarter of Europe. Whatever the war, however violent the opposing agencies, its priceless rec ords of architecture and other arts were piously or craftily spared, except when the madness of the French Revolution swept over its convents and cloisters, leaving Coxyde, Villers, St. Bavon, St. Jean des Vignes, the Abbaye des Lys, dead witnesses of the faith that had built them and the spared monuments as well. And now a thing calling itself the highest civilisation in Europe, with the name of God in its mouth, again sweeps the already well-swept land. In defiance of Peace Palaces and Con ferences; in spite of the bankers of the world and their double-knotted purse-strings; in spite of a socialism that said war Should not happen again, and an evolutionary philosophy that said it could not happen again (men now being so civilised), the world is at war, and the old arena of Europe ﬂames as at Armageddon, while those things too sacred for pillage and destruction by the armies and the commanders of five centuries are given over to annihilation in order that the peril of the Slav, on the other side of Europe, may not menace the treasured civilisation of the West, whose vestiges even now are blazing pyres, or cinders and ashes!
