Excerpt from A Little Tour in America "Hope told a flattering tale" that, having written a prefatory chapter to this book, no further prologue would be required; but I have just received an intimation from headquarters: "No Preface. Please send at once." I hate Prefaces. The writer always seems to magnify or to minimize his merits; and the reader resents his self-conceit, or infers from his humility "that his deserts are small." Who cares to know what an author thinks about himself or his books? The fond mother does not love her small boy the less because he has an appalling squint; and she describes as "a lovely auburn" his hair of brilliant red. And why does he, the author, always assure us that he has done his best? Of course he has. He knows that the critic is waiting to crown him with laurel or with foolscap, that the public are waiting to nod in approbation or in slumber, and that the publisher is waiting to send him a condolence or a cheque. They do not desire information about his modus operandi, they want to see the opus. They are not anxious to be introduced to the cook, but to taste his dishes; and no ornamental Menu nor devout Grace before Meals will alter the organization of their palates or improve the flavour of their food. Let us omit the Preface. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Conversational Tour in America I put it all down to being deprived of my golf during autumn holidays. When I say "deprived," let me not be misunderstood: I acknowledge that there was no compulsion, not even much undue influence brought to bear upon me. Phyllis, it is true, intimated that she had had enough of Westerfield, but I had long expected her to say so, for we had visited that very uninteresting spot five or six years in succession, and, except bathing and sitting on the sands and occasional conversations with acquaintances whom she picked up at the hotel, there was nothing in the place for a grown and non-golfing woman to do.

Excerpt from A Tour in the United States It: had been an arrangement between Mr. John Brooks and myself, after the termination of the long struggle for free trade in corn, in which, as members of the Council of the anti-corn-law League, from its commencement to its close, we had both taken an active, and rather an exhaust ing part, that we should seek some relaxation in a journey somewhere; and a pretty long voyage, for the benefit of his health, having been recommended to Mr. Brooks, we resolved to see the magnificent scenery of the United States, and to observe the working of democratic institutions in that great republic. I had long desired to visit America in pre ference to the old states of continental Europe, not only because I had relatives there, but that I regarded the country as destined to contain the most numerous branch of the anglo-saxon family; and my pursuits in life had given me more interest in the prospects of mankind than in their past history. A brief tour needs but a brief record. In the following pages little more is intended than to convey the impressions made upon the eye and mind of a hasty passenger through a country of much present beauty and great future.

Excerpt from My First Trip to the New World IN presenting to the public this little volume, I feel I am supplying a want felt by many, viz., a short description of a tract of country which far surpasses in the grandeur of its scenery most other places. Few, indeed, who have not heard of the Falls of Niagara, or read of the rapids of the St. Lawrence, the mighty forests of North America, and the vast plains, the Splendid rivers, and the beautiful lakes with which the Western World abounds. But to single out an account of each particular place from the various authors who have written on the subject, would be a task not within the reach of many; and I know of no work published in this country that contains an account of the places which I have in this little work endeavoured to describe. Before I left England for the United States, I was anxious to obtain some information respecting the tour I proposed to take, but after searching in vain through many libraries, I had to content myself with proceeding to America in ignorance of those places I felt a desire to become acquainted with.

Excerpt from Hulme's Journal of a Tour in the Western Countries of America: September 30, 1818-August 8, 1819 I, therefore, give his Journal, made during his tour. He Offers no opinion as to the question above stated. That I shall do; and when the reader has gone through the Journal he will find my opinions as to that question, which opinions I have stated in a Letter addressed to Mr. Birkbeck. The American reader will perceive, that this Letter is intended principally for the perusal of Englishmen; and, therefore, he must not be surprised if he finds a little bickering in a group so much of a family cast.

Excerpt from On Some Antiquities in the Neighbourhood of Dunecht House Aberdeenshire It was known to the archaeologist that there were ogam inscriptions in the district, two Of them being among the most important in Caledonia; and that within an easy motor drive there was a minuscule inscription of six lines Of which no satisfactory explanation had been given. This inscription they had visited in a previous year. Further, the quick eye Of the hostess of Dunecht had caught sight of some curious sculptures on a stone by the road-side on the way to the minus cule inscription; and other like stones in the neighbourhood had been shewn in Stuart's two volumes of Sculptural Stones of Scotland. The suggestion was then made that for the sake of visitors at Dunecht a sort Of guide book should be prepared, giving some simple description of the several Objects and their meaning and uses.
