Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rough Notes of a Traveller: Being an Account of a Trip Round the World, Via Ceylon, Arabia, Egypt, Italy, France, England, America, Sandwich Islands, Fiji, &C It may be necessary at the commencement of this work to explain that it is the result of a pressing request on the part of the Editors of the Methodist Journal who, on hearing of my intended trip round the World, asked me to make notes as I went along, and post them on to Adelaide for publication in the Journal, Never having attempted anything of the kind before, I naturally shrank from the task, but after a considerable amount of persuasion I promised to hazard the attempt: hence these rough notes. The reader will see that I have not attempted to write formal or elaborate articles on the various things and places that I have seen in my travels, but have rather tried to write them in an easy conversational style. Since my return scores of friends have pressed me to re-publish them in the book or pamphlet form, at the same time promising support; as that was an idea that had not previously occurred to me, I hesitated for a month or two, but as many entirely disinterested parties continued to speak kindly of these my maiden efforts, and advised their re-publishing, I at last decided to do so. I therefore set to work, and to some extent revised them, at the same time making a few additions and alterations but for want of time the revision has not been so thorough as I should have liked.
