Présentation de l'éditeur
The Spell of the Holy Land in her hand. I can read them and imagine that I am visiting the countries written about. But there is one fault that I have to find with all of them; they tell you about the trip from New York to Jerusalem, Zanzibar or Patagonia, but they never tell how much the trip costs. Why, I was thirty years old before I knew that it was possible to spend the summer in Europe without a small fortune. Within the quarter-hour another asked me: Did you find it expensive traveling inC hina? Half an hour later: Does it cost more to travel inC hina than in the United States? Perhaps the old lady was right. The important matter of what a trip costs may have been omitted in most cases. It may have been done purposely. The singer does not wear a placard to blazon the fact that she spent five thousand dollars having her voice trained.
