Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stark´s Illustrated Bermuda Guide: Containing a Description of Everything on or About These Places of Which the Visitor or Resident May Desire Information, Including Their History, Inhabitants, Climate, Agriculture, Geology, Government and Resource In presenting this Guide Book to the public the compiler has been actuated by the desire of introducing to the notice of those unacquainted with the Bermuda Islands, some of the many attractions to be found there, how to reach the islands, their resources and productions; the best houses of entertainment for those seeking a quiet, winter home; a brief history of the discovery and settlement of the islands; the manners and customs of the inhabitants, and a complete index and guide to all points of interest in Bermuda. Every work that it was possible to obtain on this subject has been consulted, and the information contained therein embodied in this work, much of the matter is compiled from such authorities as Smith´s "General Historie of Virginia, New England and the Summer Iles;" "Memorials of the Discovery and Early Settlement of the Bermudas," by Sir J. H. Lefroy; "Bermuda, Past and Present," by John Ogilvy; "The Visitor´s Guide to Bermuda," by J. Matthew Jones; "The Bermuda Almanack," and many other works too numerous to mention. This work is not intended as a history, although it contains several valuable articles that will be found of great historical interest and value.
