О книге

Excerpt from Britons and Muscovites: Or Traits of Two Empires

In presenting a third volume of experiences abroad, or the sights and scenes of foreign travel as seen by an American tourist, the author begins with that ever prolific field, England.

The reader is taken to the picturesque old ruins of Fountains and Furness Abbeys, to old Boston in Lincolnshire, and other historic points neglected by most travellers in that "tight little island." Some space is given to the consideration of English hotel management, from the fact that it seemed to be a leading topic with all American tourists. The abortive efforts to carry on large hotels in London on the American plan, and the annoyances experienced by Americans, who expect the same conveniences and accommodation obtainable at home, offer a tempting theme for general discussion.

A descriptive sketch is given of the author's journey to Russia, and the result of his observation of cities visited in that country, in the style which characterizes the description in his former volumes - of "Over the Ocean," and "Abroad Again."
