Excerpt from Our Ocean Railways Until his days the pathways of the human race had been the mountain, river, plain, and strait, or inland sea. To him the honour is due of having first conceived the notion of opening a road which, though replete with danger, was yet so full of promise. And here we may with national pride recall the interesting fact that this Prince who thus opened the way for the maritime explorations which have given Britain an empire on which the sun never sets, was the son of an English Royal lady, the daughter of John 0' Gaunt - timehonoured Lancaster - and therefore the nephew of our own King Henry IV., and grandson of Edward III.

Excerpt from The Sea, the Railway Journey: And Other Poems IT is not likely that many strangers will peruse this unpretending volume; and it is not necessary for me to inform my personal friends, who will constitute its principal readers, that I have not given my chief time or best mental vigour to the composition of Poetry. It has been the recreation of my days of sickness or hours of leisure, while the energies of my mind and the prime of my working hours have been consecrated to the more solemn and important labours of the Christian Ministry in a beloved Parish.

Excerpt from The Great Siberian Railway From St. Petersburg to Pekin One reviewer claims that these notes are too pro Russian-that I have said nothing about the sup posed frauds and dishonesties connected with the building of this railway. Certainly not. I do not consider that a mere book of travels has any place for such matter. To those interested in the progress of the great Empire of the North I can recommend nothing more interesting than a journey from ocean to ocean over this her great railway.

Excerpt from The Boys Book of Railways The last excursion upon which I had the Enjoyment of playing the part of guide to my readers took us, in thought at least, upon the sea. In the present volume I invite them to come back again to dry land and the railway, with a view to our studying together a little fur ther those principles and fascinating details of railway working whose fringe we just touched upon in the Boys' Book of Locomotives. My thanks are due to those readers of my first two books who have been good enough to write to me about them. And I should like to add that it is always a great pleasure to hear from readers, especially those who want to ask questions. I must, however, ask them to forgive me ii, in the exigencies of a fairly busy life, the answer be sometimes rather delayed.

Excerpt from The Ocean Carrier: A History and Analysis of the Service and a Discussion of the Rates of Ocean Transportation This book is the outgrowth of the study of three questions - the development of line traffic, the combinations among carriers to control rates, and the combination of steamship lines and railways. This work has occupied a considerable part of my time for three years, and came after the completion of a monograph on the Organization of Ocean Commerce, which in turn was the outgrowth of investigations begun for the United States Government's Isthmian Canal Commission in I899-I90I. It should be noted that this is a study primarily of the ocean service - it is an economic study. From start to finish I have been struck with the astonishing absence of any such point of view in the minds of the numerous writers who have dealt with the activities of the ocean. The biographies of men and of ships and the technical details of ships appear to have been the interesting things.
