Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sketches Abroad: With Pen and Pencil I have touched upon is familiar to my countrymen, - they being a remarkably travelling people, who are to be found, at all seasons and hours, in every corner of the habitable globe, with a laudable desire to know everything, and with that penetrative insight into "facts" which distinguished the ingenious Mr. Gradgrind. I have avoided Murray and his details; said nothing of the population of any village, town, or city I have visited, nor measured the width, height, or length of their public buildings; neither have I made any remarks upon the political or social condition of Europe, knowing these things to be done daily, by far abler pens than mine. I have sketched only and finished nothing, and trust that amiable body known as the "Public," will look upon my short-comings, in this extremely mild literary effort, with an indulgent eye.
