PREFACE.
Every year more and more is the constantlyrecurring question ever put"Where shall we go to this Summer?"and every year the field for selection gets narrowerand narrower.
In writing the following pages, my object hasbeen less to make a book than to point out to thosewho are tired of the old beaten tracks, countrieswithin easy reach of London, but seldom visited,and quite outside the lines affected by the typicaltourist:—countries where at moderate expense andwith total freedom from danger they may enjoy newscenery, receive fresh impressions, acquire newinformation; and if by so doing I shall havesuggested to others one more field for explorationthat shall afford them half the enjoyment which Iexperienced during my wanderings, I shall considermyself very amply rewarded.
