Travels In Lands Beyond The Sea PDF Download

Excerpt from Travels in Lands Beyond the Sea: Beauty and Glory of Western Europe; Eloquent and Reliable Pen Pictures of Castles, Cathedrals and Cities; Palaces, Prisons and People; Museum, Mounments and Mountains; Seas, Ships and Stroms I met Mr. Linskill, author and editor, the other day, and he told me his new book would soon make its appearance. I predict for the vol ume a large sale as soon as it is launched. Mr. Linskill is a good descriptive writer and while abroad he traveled with his eyes and ears wide open. The letters that he sent to the T elep/zone were very inter esting, and they gave him ample scope for the exercise of his literary powers; but his book will he still more interesting, for he has had time since his return to scan his note-book, carefully and to search for the buried treasures of his mind. I am not surprised that Judge Harding, in ordering a copy of the forthcoming book, should predict that it would prove so interesting and valuable that it would supplant in his library a place hitherto occupied by some of the rarest gems in English liter ature.
