Excerpt from Beyond the Sea-Rim
Now one can travel extensively for little more than it costs to spend a few weeks at the coast during the summer vacation.
A trip may be anything one chooses to make it -an item of social routine, an attempt to escape ennui, an outlet for surplus fortune. I write for those to whom travel means much more, the great number Who have more culture, perhaps, than money. To them it is an opportunity of getting the best return for a few hundred dollars that an intelligent and educated man could desire.
Travellers Who must economise are generally those Who have a summer v professors, students, school teachers, ministers, and business men Who have earned a little freedom. They have, as a rule, the months of J uly and August at their disposal. They want to see the greatest foreign cities, famous cathedrals, the masterpieces of the world in painting, sculpture, and architecture, Splendid ruins, the landmarks of history, and some of the most beautiful scenery in the world.
