In 1899 I went abroad, with my wife, son, and daughter. We landed at Naples, and traveled thence through Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Holland, Belgium, France, England, and Scotland. Before leaving home, after much inquiry and searching many libraries, I could find no single book covering our entire proposed route and these several countries well, and have found none since giving things as we saw them. Moreover, my son had already been over twice, and so enabled us to see, I think, at least twice as much as Americans usually see, and to see things twice as well. Hence this volume, which really seems needed by Americans going abroad, and by others fond of European travel by proxy. It is not a Guide-book, nor a "Sentimental Journey," but a common-sense account of Europe as it is. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
