The Universal Guide of Standard Routes and Itineraries of Tourist Travel All Over the World

The Universal Guide of Standard Routes and Itineraries of Tourist Travel All Over the World excerpt:

This opening up of the world has produced the globe-trotter, as well as the man who desires to observe, to learn, to enjoy and not merely to see. But few men have had time or opportunity to keep themselves informed on the constant changes and extensions of lines of transportation (difficult enough, indeed, to those who make this their special business), and, for guidance of the hitherto busy man who now desires to indulge in the pleasures of extended travel, the author has prepared this little book. A lifetime of practical experience with the greatest tourist agency in the world (messrs. Thomas Cook Son) enables him to suggest, in the selection of routes, etc such needed information as will insure to the traveler confidence in the commencement of his journey and comfort in its course.
