Présentation de l'éditeur :
The events I have tried to describe in this book occurred in different parts of the world between the months of May, 1896, and June, 1897. Of the articles and letters that have been selected to fill it, those on the Coronation, the I nauguration, and the Jubilee appeared in Harper s Magazine, the one on the Millennial Celebration in Hungary in Scribner s Magazine. The letters from Cuba were written to the New York Journal while I was on the island as a correspondent of that paper, and were later published in a book called Cuba in War-time. Those used here were loaned through the courtesy of the publisher, Mr. Robert Howard Russell. The article on the Greek Turkish war is made up of one which appeared in Harper s Magazine and of letters which I wrote from Turkey and Greece while acting as war correspondent of the London Times.

Présentation de l'éditeur :
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
