Excerpt from Superficial Glimpses of Travel In offering an apology for the title of this volume, I am sure the indulgent reader will unite with me in thinking that an eight months trip, spent in passing from one city to another, of the several ones we visited, does not afford much opportunity of looking beneath the surface. We can visit the great works of art; the ruins, churches, museums, etc., and glance at them; staying between whiles at hotels mostly filled with Americans, every arrangement being made with a view to please them. But we see almost nothing of the life of the people, their manners, customs and habits. We are generally ignorant of their language, and pass away from them with very indefinite ideas, little that can be gathered from actual observation. I should think it would take years to bring us into that sympathy with them, that would allow us truly to appreciate national characteristics. Therefore I feel as if the survey I have taken can only be called superficial. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
