“The chief merit of this book lies in the coloured plates, most of which are interesting, while a few are of great beauty. The letterpress, oddly unconcerned with the pictures, is a lady’s account of her travels—pleasant, but much too wordy—interspersed with a lot of trite and often worthless information which simply embodies the commonplaces of social intercourse in a land where every one sets up for an authority.”
