Excerpt from Switzerland of the Swiss IT is hoped that this work will be the means of conveying an accurate impression of Switzerland of to-day, and throw some light upon the life and pursuits of the inhabitants. It has been the writer's endeavour to avoid subjects of the guide-book order, while sparing the reader all unnecessary platitudes, the pitfall of writers of this class of book. He has emphasized what is commendable and lightly touched upon that which is open to criticism. It is a curious fact that writers, for centuries, have dwelt upon the avarice and inhospitableness of the Swiss.

Excerpt from Switzerland and the Swiss The following pages have been written in the hopes of accomodating, as far as may be, the very great number of Americans and English who have wanted books giving general information of Switzerland and its people. Of mere Guide-Books, there are already many, but these necessarily stop with simply telling how to get about in the country. Of Histories, there are almost none, or as good as none, available in English. In view of this, the following papers have been prepared, combining a condensed History of the country with general information relative to the people and their institutions and with descriptions of the finest scenes. To make these papers as useful as possible to readers who may carry the book along to Switzerland, it is prefaced with a chapter of Hints and Suggestions as to the easiest and most economical way of seeing Switzerland. For the convenience of travelers who may not care to read the historical parts first, they are placed at the back of the book.

Excerpt from A Short History of Switzerland Having been for some years engaged upon the Swiss State Papers preserved among the archives of the Public Record Office, it occurred to me that it would be of great interest to me in connection with that work, and possibly of some general use, to make an English translation of a thoroughly good and trustworthy history of Switzerland. Finding that Dr. Dandliker had published a short history of that country, as well as the larger one in three volumes, I decided (with the author's consent) to use the smaller work for the purpose, and have now completed the translation of the second edition, especially revised and annotated by Dr. Dandliker. I trust that it may help to arouse more interest among English readers in the past of the little land whose beauties are a never-failing source of pleasure to English travellers. The translation has been made in the spare moments of a busy life, and my only regret is that my knowledge of the subject has, I fear, been too limited to admit of my doing full justice to Dr. Dandliker's very excellent work.

Excerpt from Switzerland All this illustrates the fundamental truth about Switzer land that it is not a homogeneous but a composite state. The country is so small - its total area is less than half that of Ireland - that everyone has more or less difficulty in grasping its essentially federal character. The federalism, however, is a reality - the root reality of Swiss history and modern Swiss government. The Republic is a congregation of small self governing communities that have been gradually drawn together by common interests and the need of defence against outside powers. Through centuries the union was a loose and variable one; to-day it is Closely knit and severely defined. But each community, howsoever it may have been brought into the union - by treaty, or by conquest, or as a suppliant for protection - jealously guards its individuality and its rights of self-rule. Certain of these rights have been handed over to the federal government; but the rest are the canton's own - ln regard to them it is sovereign, and the Parliament in Bern cannot abate a jot or tittle of them.

Excerpt from Ten Days in Switzerland After busy, feverish days of sightseeing in London and Paris, the atmosphere of Switzerland is like a benediction. Leaving Paris in the morning, an all-day ride is made through France by the way of Dijon, and one arrives at night, after dark, at Lausanne. The carriage that takes us to our hotel winds up and up the hilly roads till we reach a sort of main street, and we begin to think we have arrived. But presently we stop; a man jumps from the box and fastens some enormous chains to the wheels, and then we start slowly down an almost up and down bit of street, turn sharply to the right, and find ourselves at the door of our hotel. No impression can be formed of where we are situated, and after dinner we retire, to wait for the morning light. What a scene then lies before us! Sloping to the shore of Lake Leman is part of the pretty town. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Switzerland: Picturesque and Descriptive During a very long period, Switzerland and the Alps have been among the most beautiful regions sought by millions of tourists from all parts of the world. They display the greatest scenic attractions of Europe in their grandest form, and especially for American visitors have a special charm that is most seductive. In going or coming, the noble Rhine: the Great River of the German Fatherland, is usually fol lowed, up or down, and thus becomes a part of the popular Swiss tour. In the following pages there have been compiled, largely as the result of personal observation, much of the scenic description, history and romance of these charming regions, which have had such an im portant share in European contentions and develop ment in the past, as-they now contribute so greatly to the pleasure of the army of the world's travellers.

Excerpt from Switzerland: Its Scenery, History, and Literary Associations Whatever qualifications the author may or may not have for writing the book, he has one, at least, a deep love for his ancestral father land, which has led him, not only to the study of her history, but to oft-repeated visits to the places mentioned herein. Long before the thought of writing the book was suggested to him, he found, not only renewed health and strength among the snow-covered Alps themselves, but. Many times since then.
