Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dominion of Canada: With Newfoundland and an Excursion to Alaska, Handbook for Travellers Handbook to Canada is intended to help the traveller in planning his tour and disposing of his time to the best adviintage, and thus to enable him the more thorouglily to enjoy and appreciate the objects of interest he meets with. The writer is Mr. J.F. Muirhcad, M.A., author of the companion volume on the United Sfates, who has personally visited the greater part of the districts described. No one is better aware than the Editor himself of the inevitable imperfections in the earlj editions of a guidebook; and the vast extent of the Dominion of Canada has made the preparation of the present volume a peculiarly difficult task. He has not attempted to give more than a few suggestions and hints for the travellers guidance in the less-known parts of the territory, where a Journey still necessarily assumes something of the nature of an exploration. In such cases a book cannot take the place or perform the services of a living guide. The Editor hopes that the present volume will continue toshiue in the advantages that accrue to the whole series of his Handbooks from the valuable and highly appreciated corrections and suggestions of the travelling public. In the preparation of the Handbook the Editor has received most material aid from friends in all parts of the Dominion. In particular he wishes to express his obligations to the Dominion and Provincial ministers and officials, to the superior officials of the leading Railway Companies, and to the librarians of the Parliamentary Library at Ottawa. Grateful acknowledgments are also specially due, in addition to those individuals mentioned throughout the Handbook, to Dr. Benjamin ii ((of Cambridge (Mass.); Mr. W.I). Liyhthall, 3 fr.
