Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Daring Voyage: Across the Atlantic Ocean It was a splendid afternoon in the month of September, 1877. Two brothers, William A. Andrews and Asa Walter Andrews, were seated on the cliffs above the entrance of Beverly Harbour, in New England. A refreshing breeze was blowing from the south, and wafting numerous small boats on the waters before them in every direction. It was a delightful locality, on the brow of a bluff, and the scene unexcelled by any on the eastern coast of America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ninety Days Worth of Europe I am to say, in a prefatory note to this work, that I have as great a contempt for books of travel as I ever had, and quite as much for this book as I have for any of the class. I have also to say to the public, that I have no wish that they should buy it, take it out of Loring's Library at two cents a day, or out of the City Library for nothing. Still less do I advise them to read a word in it, by any accident whatever. But I find, that in six months, since I returned from a very happy little dash across Europe, I have had constant occasion to lend to friends the letters which I sent home, or the note-books and scrap-books which I brought home. I am also constantly referring to them myself for the chastening of the imaginative side of my memory, and the stimulating of its drowsy side. It will be much more convenient to recur to these memorials in print than in their original manuscript; and for this private and personal purpose, here on a New-Hampshire hillside, at too high a level to be hot, and too far from men to be interrupted, on this lovely July day, I begin the arrangement for the press of these pages. They are dedicated to that circle of friends who would have been glad to look over them in manuscript. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of His First Voyage to America The so-called Journal of Columbus is one of those bare, spare, essential documents that form the skeleton of the corpus of history. It is a simple sailor's record, but like the staff of Colum bus 's patron saint it has grown with time into a palm-tree, covered with fruits and foliage. The narrative is an abstract of the original journal (made by the Admiral's companion Las Casas.) It is as direct and outwardly severe as such a work would necessarily be; and yet from this seed have sprung histories, biographies, novels, plays and poems innumerable.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of a Voyage for the Discovery of a North-West Passage From the Atlantic to the Pacific: Performed in the Years 1819-90, in His Majesty's Ships Hecla and Griper The ships were completely furnished with' provisions and stores for a period of two years; in addition to which, a large supply of fresh meats and soups, preserved in tin cases, by Messrs. Donkin and Gamble, of Burkitt's essence of malt and hops, and of the essence of spruce, was also put on board, besides a number of other extra stores adapted to cold climates and a long voyage. The anti scorbutics consisted of lemon-juice (which forms a part of the. Daily rations on board His Majesty's ships), vinegar, sour-krout, pickles, and herbs; and the whole of the provisions, which were of the very best quality, were stowed in preserve them from moisture or other injury. As a matter of experiment, asmall quantity of vinegar, in a highly-concentrated state, recommended and prepared by Doctor Bollman, was also put on board, and was found Of essential service, the greater part of the com mon kind being destroyed by the severity of the frost. In order to save stowage, only a small proportion of biscuit was received; flour, which had been previously kiln-dried with great care, being substituted in its place. For the purpose of baking for the daily con sumption of the crews during the winter months, a portable oven was furnished to the Hecla; and after a good leaven. Had been once obtained, we found no difficulty in baking light and wholesome bread. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Wing Through Europe HE letters contained in this volume were written hastily for the Daily Ohio State Journal, of Columbus, as I could catch a moment's time on the cars, or while stopping for rest during the intervals of travel and sight-seeing. I had no expectation that they would be received with so much favor, and I cannot but think that the words of apprecia tion so often addressed to me come from over-par tial friends, and that, on the other hand, I have not heard the criticisms of those less favorably impressed. It has often occurred to me that many, while traveling abroad, do not derive that instruction and entertainment which they might, and fail to have their interest sufficiently awakened in the novel and lovely scenes through which they are passing, because they have not, by previous preparation, informed themselves of the countries and peoples which they.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from At Home and Abroad: Or Things and Thoughts in America and Europe There are at least three classes of persons who travel in our own land and abroad. The first and largest in number consists of those who, "having eyes, see not, and ears, hear not," anything which is profitable to be remembered. Crossing lake and ocean, passing over the broad prairies of the New World or the classic fields of the Old, though they look on the virgin soil sown thickly with flowers by the hand of God, or on scenes memorable in man's history, they gaze heedlessly, and when they return home can but tell us what they ate and drank, and where slept, - no more; for this and matters of like import are all for which they have cared in their wanderings. Those composing the second class travel more intelligently. They visit scrupulously all places which are noted either as the homes of literature, the abodes of Art, or made classic by the pens of ancient genius. Accurately do they mark the distance of one famed city from another, the size and general appearance of each; they see as many as possible of celebrated pictures and works of art, and mark carefully dimensions, age, and all details concerning them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Afoot and Awheel in Europe It was May, 1910, the year of the Passion Play at Oberammergau, that found a quartette of expectant travellers, of whom the writer of this chronicle was one, on the deck of the steamer Celtic in New York Harbor, ready to sail over seas. Some shadows they had left behind them: some solace and much joy they hoped to find among the new scenes of the Old World - a hope, the record of whose fulfilment is told in the pages of this book. The good-byes had been said, the quartette hastened to their staterooms, made themselves busy arranging their tokens of love and friendship that loving friends had sent to the ship with their good-byes, so as not to see the fading forms of the loved ones left behind, and the good ship left her moorings and made her way out to sea. The days passed as most days do on shipboard, watching the changing lights and shadows that played over the deep blue sea, noting the peaceful rise and fall of the horizon, veritably being rocked in the cradle of the deep. Between the sunlight, shadows, and sea there came a restfulness of the spirit that followed us through our seven months' travels in Europe, and also on our homeward course, until our hearts leaped for joy when our eyes fell upon Old Glory in New York Harbor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Big American Caravan in Europe The following letters were written while making a tour on the Continent of Europe. There was no idea, at the time, of their publication. No pains was taken with them, and they were often hurriedly written under the most unfavorable circumstances. Our itinerary aimed to consume all our time, and frequently we were at a loss for rest. But for this reason they may be all the more acceptable, as they convey the impressions that were fresh upon me, and are honest impressions with regard to things as I saw them. A desire on the part of those who made this tour to have the letters, led to their publication, and they may not fail to entertain others. The putting through this large party in the very height of the tourist season, was certainly a mammoth undertaking, and shows to what perfection this business has attained. In Switzerland especially, where it has been estimated over a million tourists visited during the summer, it was a wonder that we experienced no inconvenience from delays or over crowding. The weather, for the most part, was very propitious and our chances for sight seeing were perhaps rarely excelled.
