Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Round Trip by Way of Panama Through California, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, and Colorado: With Notes on Railroads, Commerce, Agriculture, Mining, Scenery, and People Desiring to be on familiar terms with my readers, I have adopted the unconstrained style of a personal narrative, without any affectation of modesty in avoiding the use of personal pronouns. Lest complaint should be made of anachronisms, and there should be discoveries of ubiquity, the reader is notified that this book is the result of more than one year´s experience, brought up as nearly as possible to the conditions of the present day, and combined as continuous. I wish to point out objects of interest not often "written up." Thus, little is said of large cities, and absolutely nothing of the Yosemite. The tourist starts upon the Trans-Continental tour with a library of illustrated guide-books and maps, some of which are indispensable. If he goes directly from New York to San Francisco, and thence directly returns, they are all that are necessary. If, however, he has the leisure and inclination to look at some things not exactly on the line of railroads, he may perhaps profitably make a selection from The Round Trip.
