Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Out of the Way Places Off and on, for some years, in the summer months, I have stolen away from my law office, and have crossed the seas and roamed strange lands. On those travels I have written, irregularly, many letters to the papers of Dayton, describing my observations, experiences, and sensations. These letters have not always dealt with the most important objects, but with those that momentarily appealed to me. From these letters, describing the odds and ends of travel, I have selected some telling of less familiar places, and these I have combined and revised, and now put forth in this little book. My motive for these travels has been the simple love of travel, and is expressed in these lines from Kipling´s poem, "The Feet of the Young Men": "He must go - go - go away from here! On the other side the world he´s overdue, ´Send your road is clear before you when the old Spring-fret comes o´er you And the Red Gods call for you! "Unto each the voice and vision; unto each his spoor and sign - Lonely mountain in the Northland, misty sweat bath ´neath the line - And to each a man that knows his naked soul!" Wm. G. Frizell.
