YOUNG AMERICANS ABROAD; or, Vacation in Europe: the Results of a Tour through Great Britain, France, Holland, Belgium, Germany, and Switzerland. By John Overton Choules, D. D., and his Pupils. With Elegant Illustrations. 16mo, cloth, 75 cts.
A highly entertaining work, embracing more real information, such as every one wishes to know about Europe, than any other book of travels ever published.
Three intelligent lads, who knew how to use their eyes, accompanied their tutor on a European tour; and, from a carefully-kept journal, they wrote out, in a series of letters to a favorite companion in study, at home, their impressions of the most remarkable places en route. The pencillings are genuine and unaffected, and in all respects form an interesting and instructive record of travel.—Sartain’s Magazine.
One of the most instructive and delightful books of the age.—Southern Lit. Gaz.
Boys, here is a book that will suit you exactly. It is a series of letters from certain boys travelling in Europe to their classmates in this country. It will improve your knowledge and amuse you during long winter nights.—Methodist Prot.
It is worth much more than many a larger and more pretentious volume, for giving a daguerreotype of things abroad.—Congregationalist.
A beautiful book for young people, unlike any thing we have ever seen.—Ch. Ob.
Most interesting book that can be put into the hands of the young.—Olive Branch.
