Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Golightly Round the Globe Tired of sad funerals and mad weddings; sick of bad men and fad women; surfeited with sermons and speeches, I wanted to get off the earth into the middle of the sea. One January morning found me at the depot with muffs on my ears and bags in my hand ready to put a girdle round the globe, and do it in four months instead of Puck´s "forty minutes." Bunyan´s Pilgrim met the tight-wad, Mr. Money-Love, but at Kansas City I fell in with "Col." Goodrich, who, when he learned of the tour I was making, said: "Here´s a hundred I forgot to send you last Christmas. See the canyon for me." It was an oasis in the desert - and through the two ciphers of his gift I was able to see the biggest and brightest of God´s masterpieces on the easel of nature, the Grand Canyon of the Arizona. What a chasm of color - it was like riding through a rainbow. My mount was a big "Teddy" mule, who had carried my friend T. R. some time before.
