Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Story of an European Tour
The European trip which is described in this little story was the culmination of a lifetime of hopes and anticipations. I realize that impressions of so brief a journey will seem extremely crude and "scrappy," particularly to those who have spent years upon the same ground. I have told the story as it actually occurred, not assuming to know, where I did not know, and endeavoring not to take up space with details and facts to be easily found elsewhere.
My husband and myself made up the party "conducted by ourselves," and the experiences are individual. The story was begun as a simple journal of the trip, with no thought of its ever being published in book form.
My largest hope for it is that it may inspire some to "see for themselves." Of course, in "seeing for oneself," many things are disappointing, but on the whole there will be added to life that which can be added in no other way.
