Excerpt from A Trip Around the World
Far East, because it was there we sojourned longest and had the Opportunity of closely viewing the many, to us, strange sights and scenes.
In submitting this volume to the public, I ask that it be not too critically judged, It. Is but a plain, fair and impartial recital of what we saw and did, without the slightest attempt at elaboration.
The historical and statistical information was obtained from the most reliable sources.
The illustrations were carefully chosen from a collection of over eight hundred original pictures gathered during our travels, and are colored true to nature.
