Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from New Footsteps in Well-Trodden Ways There were three people on the good ship, New England - the best boat on the sea - who by all right and title should have crossed the Atlantic many a time - but who were going over for the first time in the early days of September, 1898. They confessed to one another their common dis-credit; and interchanged pledges not to reveal it to the man from South Africa who had crossed nine times between Port Elizabeth and Liverpool, and made a tour through the United States and Canada besides. One of them made a firm resolution not to give a lecture on the trip; and another pledged herself not to make a new book thereon. But "tell us how this or that impressed you" was urged so often on the latter that she yielded in wonted fashion to the solicitation of circumstance? and now breaks her good resolution by reprinting these notes of a trip in which sight-seeing was limited by diminished strength and heart for it, and a secret sympathy with the pilgrims who were fain, for the time being, to fill the fountain of Trevi from the river of Lethe.
