Book Description
Excerpt from A Visit to Greece and Constantinople, in the Year 1827-8 Tm; author of this volume sailed for Greece on the 12th of September, 1827, as agent for the distribution of a cargo of provisions and clothing among the suffering people of that country. Some time after his return he was tempted by a period of leisure, to prepare for the press a short account of the things which he saw and heard during his sojourn abroad, hoping that it might perhaps be read with some interest, at a moment of such universal anxiety and curiosity respecting that portion of the globe which he visited. [t was not, however, until the latter part of the sum mer of 1829, that he resolved to undertake the task; and since that time the completion of it has been unavoidably delayed by circumstances of a private nature. With a trembling hand, the author now lays the result of his labours before the public: he knows the stern tribunal before which he has to appear, and nei ther asks nor expects any indulgence. He would only state, in order to justify himself in anticipation against the charge of pre sumption, that he has not ventured upon the hazardous experi. Ment of publication, without taking the advice of those whose judgment he has reason to respect. If he has been deceived and misled by the partiality of friendship, let the work be consigned without mercy to the ames, and let all the people cry, amen!

Book Description
Excerpt from Constantinople: Old and New This is not a book of learning, but I have required a great deal of help in putting it together, and I cannot close this prefatory note without acknowledging my in debtedness to more kind friends than I have space to name. Most of all I owe to Mr. E. L. Burlingame, of Scribner's Magazine, and to my father, Dr. H. O. Dwight, without whose encouragement, moral and material, during many months, I could never have afforded the luxury of writing a book. I am also under obligation to their Excellencies, J. G. A. Leishman, O. S. Straus, and W. W. Rockhill, American ambassadors to the Porte, and especially to the last, for cards of admis sion, letters of introduction, and other facilities for col lecting material. Among many others who have taken the trouble to give me assistance of one kind or another I particularly wish to express my acknowledgments to Arthur Baker, Esq.; to Mgr. Christophoros, Bishop of Pera; to F. Mortimer Clapp, Esq.; to Feridoun Bey. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
