Présentation de l'éditeur

Foreword I have not written a book. At the urgent request of some of our friends, I have collected the letters I wrote to them during the year we were traveling in many lands, and with the help of the quite copious notes which I never failed to record in my diary I have been able to reproduce at least a general idea of where we have been and what we have seen, and a faint glimpse only of the much we have learned. If this story of our journeyings gives one half the pleasure to those who read it, that it has given to me in the writing, it will not have been written in vain; for in rewriting these letters, and in the frequent references to my notebooks, I have lived over again much of the interesting and valuable part of our trip, without any of our discomforts and weariness. If our experience and notes can be a help to anyone contemplating a similar trip, I shall be glad I have written this. S. R. C.
