Book Description
Excerpt from Twenty Thousand Miles of Road Travel: In Central Western Europe This work is not simply a book of travels; it is likewise a treatise on men and manners, on foreigners and foreign things. Good and bad qualities being altogether relative, it is only by comparison that mans social and moral standard can be determined, and, naturally, I have compared the French, Germans, Austrians, Italians, and Swiss with ourselves. According to my lights, I have given my views of men, women, and things in general, nothing extenuating, naught setting down in malice. The virtuously indignant "who cannot understand why the English should be so hated on the Continent" will learn, by reading these pages, "the reason why." A portion of our first year's travel, and the descriptions of Lourdes, the Grande Chartreuse, Adelsberg, and Nice, appeared in the columns of the Meld. In the twenty thousand miles of road travel the mileage of unrecorded side excursions is included. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
