Excerpt from Glimpses of South America A great many books have been written about South America. These books tell of its history, describe its cities, public buildings, and monuments, and quote miles of statistics on its natural resources and commercial possibilities, or are deeply analytical of underlying national characteristics. Most of them are interesting, particularly at the present time. Many of them have been written after careful and painstaking study, and with a thorough acquaintance with the countries and people described in them. The present volume does none of these things. In the first place, it was not designed to do so - in fact, it was not designed at all - simply growing out of random notes made on two trips to the various countries that are most visited by those of us who wander that way. These trips to South America have not been out of the ordinary. They have simply followed the beaten track, and I have met only with the usual experiences. I have not gone into out-of-the-way places, nor enjoyed special advantages that would enable me to hear or see more than any one else travelling over the same route. While my stays in these countries have been much longer than those of the casual visitor, they have not, I am frank to confess, been long enough for me to interpret the real significance of the contemporaneous life that is going on from year to year to the south of us; nor have I in any way attempted to do so. Interest in South America has increased greatly in this country during the past few years. More Americans - I was about to say "North Americans," in accordance with South American custom - will visit our sister continent than ever before. Many more would like to do so.
