Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Three Weeks in Holland and Belgium It would be remarkable had not the mild success of my first book imbued me with the idea that I have a "mission." Briefly stated, that mission is to act as spokesman for the humble and despised class grouped in travel books under the name of "tourists." Tourists are condemned by the universal law of human nature which judges all grades of society by the noisy minority. To the great majority of tourists a trip abroad is the fruit plucked from a tree of slow growth, the roots of which are sunk deep in the soil of hard work and self-denial, and whose blossoming branches represent years of studious preparation intelligently to appreciate the present beauty or past grandeur of the things spread before them in foreign lands. They do not talk in strident tones. They give just compensation for services rendered and pay due homage to genuine greatness, whether living or dead.
