A Physicians Vacation Or A Summer In Europe PDF Download

Excerpt from A Physician's Vacation: Or, a Summer in Europe I left Boston for Liverpool, you remember, early in May, 1852, and after rest from a weary, sick voyage, I started from London for the Continent, - crossing the Channel at Dover for Calais, and passing through France, Belgium, Prussia, Mecklenburg, Hanover, Hamburg, to Stettin on the Oder, and thence by the Baltic to Cronstadt, and by the Neva to St. Petersburg. Moscow terminated my progress in Russia. My return was through Denmark, the Duchies, Prussia, Saxony, Austria, Bavaria, Baden, entering France at Strasburg, and by way of Nancy, Epernay, the land of Champagne, - Chalons, Vitry, &c., reached Paris. You will see, by following me on the map, that I passed up on one side of the Continent, returning along the other, completing the triangle by the almost straight line from Vienna to Paris. My wanderings were not yet over. I left Paris for the South of France, and having passed through this exquisite portion of that noble state, I reached Behobie, "the last crumb of France," and was at once on the bridge which crosses the Bidasoa, which unites, or separates, as you please, France and Spain.
