Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of Old Travel In the thirteenth century the wonderfully rapid aggregation of innumerable small Tartar tribes into one vast swarm, guided in its ceaseless work of destruction by a succession of absolute and pitiless hands, those of Ghengis Khan and his generals, and grandsons, the sons of Tuli; filled all Europe with alarm. That alarm grew into terror after the fall of Cracow in 1240, when Baatu Khan, with half a million of flat-faced and short-legged warriors, routed the chivalry of Europe under the Count Palatine of Saxony, and desolated Eastern Europe in all directions. The wildest notions prevailed about the savageness of these conquering Tartars. Yui of Narbonne, in his letter to the Bishop of Bordeaux, quoted by Matthew Paris, narrates as having occurred under his own eye at the siege of Neustadt, in Carniola, horrors far too hideous for repetition here.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of Travel, All Around the World It IS in response to many requests from friends and strangers who have read my Around the World letters published in the newspapers, that I write a book-that has induced me to issue this modest volume. Somebody has said that there is no story as enchanting as the story of a human life. I think there is much more information and interest in the story of a nation, with its millions of human lives, its history, achievements, customs, characteristics, and all its Varied and vast concerns.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of Adventure and Stories of Travel of Fifty Years Ago These Tales of Adventure and Stories of Travel have been gleaned from many volumes of the 'Annuals' which were so much the rage between fifty and sixty years ago. Although there was much that was trivial in them, and amateur writers rather than literary men filled most of the pages with their contributions, yet among the three hundred volumes that were published between the years 1823 and 1850 there were sure to be some literary efforts deserving of a better fate than to be buried with the rest.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of Travel But in the course Of these journeys I visited many other countries and places, twice going round the world, and exploring unfrequented spots, not in Asia only, but in Europe, Africa, and America. In certain of these cases I studied rather deeply some subjects of more than ephem eral interest, I came across some remarkable persons, and I made notes Of many curious scenes. I have found it a 'diversion, in the turmoil of public life, to put these notes into final shape, and have even thought that they might prove Of interest to a larger audience. After I had spent some years in travelling and in writing about my travels, it gave me greater pleasure to be awarded the Gold Medal of the Royal Geographical Society for exploration and research than it did to become a Minister of the Crown; and every moment that I could snatch from politics - before they finally captured and tied me down - I devoted to the pursuit Of my Old love.

It is more than two hundred miles long, including Marble Cahon, is from ten to thirteen miles wide in the granite gorge section, and is more than a mile deep. It was created ages and ages ago by the erosive action of water, wind, and frost, and it is still being deepened and widened imperceptibly year by year.

Thirty great iron-clads followed in quick succession; men-of-war crowded the harbor. They had been ordered into Turkish waters on account of the war then raging between Turkey and Russia. From ship and shore thousands of spectators watched the Vandalia's approach with eager interest, and from the foremast of every vessel and the flagstaffs of the city the American flag waved the General a glad and hearty welcome.

This Kentish man was a true and loyal subject of Queen Elizabeth, but he was ready, like many Englishmen of that time, to serve wherever he had good opportunity, provided it was not among the Spaniards and other enemies of free and Protestant England. He gives account of himself and of his voyages in letters to his wife, which were fortunately pre served, and published by Purchas, the Collector of so many curious and valuable records of old travel and adventure.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Traits of Travel, or Tales of Men and Cities Airman of what is intended to be (like the present volumes) light reading, are sometimes temptel to make prefatory acknowledgments that illness and other de pressing circumstances have attended the progress of their work. I doubt the policy of this plan either in propitiating the critic or in interesting the public. It is very questionable whether the state of mind or body ia uences the pen when it is able to move at all. Many a farce has been composed 'in moods of hypochondria, and the deepest tragedies have often been the produc tions of the merriest fellows. But even admitting the contrary of my theorems, the captions reader is too fond of his privilege of finding faults, to receive a warn ing that he is to meet with them at every turn; while the most tolerant must be prejudiced against an c 'ort to amuse, prefaced by a desponding face or a suit of mourning. The better way is, surely, to let readers be cheerful and contented while they may. On this prin ciple, I hope mine will believe that the following pages were written in high health, high fortune, and spirits. With a friendly few, who may find reason to imagine the contrary, I have little fear of its doing any mischief.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Traits of Travel, or Tales of Men and Cities, Vol. 2 of 2 The day that I and my companion rode over to see him was a fine one in J une, and as we walked cur horses into the town, we heard a considerable clamour towards the market-place. We trotted in that direction, and the first thing that struck us was the fine figure of Phil, in a crowd of town's-people which sur rounded a squad of four or five Cossacks, who had rode into the market, got drunk in a cabaret, and were quarrelling together and belabourin'g each other unmercifully, with the short thick whips attached to their bridles. These savages did not lay-on each other more ferociously than did some cowardly scoundrels of the town lay on them, when two or three of them were tumbled from their ponies and lay sprawling on the ground. All the enmity of the vanquished broke out, and the Cossacks would have been roughly handled indeed, had not a gallant ally been ready, in the person of the English captain. Who instantly inter fer-cd, wielding his good arm powerfully, and making most un ceremonious applications with the toe of his boot to the rear ward demonstrations of the ﬂying enemy, some dozens of whom ran before him in electrical dismay.
