Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Roundabout Journey We left Paris on the morning of November 8, 1881, in a dense fog. The difference between the fog of Paris and the fog of London is that one is yellow and the other is black; both are raw and piercing, and when I am in Paris I am not prepared to say that I prefer the latter. The Paris sky is gray, like its houses. I do not know why it is that all the large capitals of the civilized world have such unpleasant climates, - London, Paris, St. Petersburg, Berlin, - New York, even with its extremes, is better than either. We did not escape from the fog until we had run through the forest of Fontainebleau, when the sun came out in all its splendor, and we were whirled along through a cloudless day, and over a smiling land, every inch of which is cultivated.
