Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tourist Guide to the West Indies, Venezuela, Isthmus of Panama and Bermuda In this little book it has been the intention to produce a practical guide for tourists visiting the West Indies. It also contains descriptions of trips to places of interest for those having limited time. In as few words as possible, concise and accurate accounts are given of locations, distances, time occupied, average cost of reaching places worthy of a visit, railroad and carriage fare, statistics, brief historical sketches and other information useful to tourists. In the performance of this task every available source has been drawn upon and the best authorities have been consulted and quoted. Getting to the West Indies comfortably is no longer the difficult problem of a few years ago, and it is quite possible to have smiling skies and most considerate seas from Sandy Hook to the Caribbean. Those who prefer large ships have every opportunity of making the journey down in vessels as large as the transatlantic liners and which are fitted up with a view of insuring comfort and affording recreation during the cruise in tropical waters. For lovers of nature and seascapes, the West Indies have a beauty of their own not to be found in the tropical continents. The islands of the Windward and Leeward groups, each with its little harbor or roadstead and adjacent hills covered with luxuriant tropical vegetation of varied tints, are dotted in a chain for about 800 miles.
