" As we all know, it is not necessary for a man to discover a new country in order to write an interesting book of travel. He may traverse the most beaten track in Europe, and yet if he can describe what he has seen with freshness and originality, he will succeed in engaging our attention. We do not go far with Dr. Field before finding out that he is a traveller of this sort." And so on for a column and a half, criticising here and there, but praising warmly ; and end- ing, "Thus we take leave of a writer who has produced so interesting and meritorious a book that we are sorry we cannot coincide with all his conclu- sions." From THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE. " Few recent travellers combine so many qualities that are adapted to com- mand the interest and sympathy of the public. While he indulges, to its fullest extent, the characteristic American curiosity with regard to foreign lands, insisting on seeing every object of interest with his own eyes, shrinking from no peril or difficulty in pursuit of information — climbing mountains, descending mines, exploring pyramids, with no sense of satiety or weariness, he has also made a faithful study of the highest authorities on the different subjects of his narrative, thus giving solidity and depth to his descriptions, without sacrificing their facility or grace." From the late WILLIAM ADAMS, D.D., LL.D. "... They are the best of the kind ever written, and have done, antf will do, the writer boundless credit.'" From THE INDEPENDENT. " We do not recall a book in which there is so admirable a union of 3 ii'aveller's narrative of experience and a judicious observer's comments upoii « ^e condition of foreign society and politics."
