O knihe

Excerpt from What Marjorie Saw Abroad

Thinking of this, I wondered if tourists did not want a light book they could read at leisure before starting and gather some idea as to What they wanted most to see; or if those Who never intended going, from fear of the ocean or lack of means, did not Wish a something Which could keep them in touch With the outside world.

Yet it is not intended for a guide-book - only a. Forerunner. Guidebooks can be purchased along the way and referred to, but are read to better advantage later in quiet and leisure, Which is almost equal to taking a second trip in the pleasure the revival imparts.

It might be well for the youth of our schools to use or read this book along With their studies. It would familiarize them With the main parts of the Old World and bear rich fruit later in life if such a trip be taken.

My best apology for it is the kindness With Which my neighbors listened to my tale of won ders; they being more than usually enlightened; always struggling to know the latest and best, Which means progress. I felt as if it might please others, especially those Who remain at home, and help those Who, know not the ropes When setting out, having to pick and choose the best - in the haste of sightseeing - from the sumptuous dish set before them.
