New Life in New Lands: Notes of Travel

Paperback (Forgotten Books July 2, 2012)
Httle offering to the great American public is my first offence in the book line for some years. It is surely not a grave offence, being composed of light letters, contributed during the last eighteen months to the New York Times. They were written irregularly and hurriedly, in brief intervals of travel, visiting, lecturing, and sight -seeing. Unfortunately a severe illness in the late summer and early autumn prevented me from giving them the careful revision they greatly needed. They go into print the second time with all their old sins on their heads, the original sin of having been a journal of travel over well-traveled paths ;sins of omission in matter of philosophic thought and valuable statistics ;sins of commission in the way of puns and slang and foolish jesting which is not convenient.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
