Vacation Tour


Book Description

Excerpt from Vacation Tour: In the United States and Canada Then with respect to the route, - that most im portant consideration to the tourist in all lands, and especially in a country yet unblessed by a Murray's Handbook - how labyrinthine were the wanderings traced for me by kind friends l - some bent on sending me well high to the North Pole others to the Dismal swmp and New Orleans; while a few spirited me in imagination across the Rocky Mountains, including a visit to California and the unholy Mormons. The result of all these counsels was hanging a large map of America upon the wall, and tracing on it a route through the United States and Canada; and I rejoice to say I have no reason to repent my decision.

A Tour in the States Canada


Book Description

Excerpt from A Tour in the States Canada: Out and Home in Six Weeks The new world is naturally a source of great interest to most English people, and there are few in the old country who have not friends or relatives in America. Much has been said and written of that country, but it covers such a vast area, its progress has been so rapid, and its future is so promising, that the subject is far from being yet exhausted. A run over to the States is a matter of far less importance, in these days of travel, than a journey from York to London was considered fifty years ago. In the way of many, however, who would like to see for themselves the state of things across the Atlantic, there are many obstacles, and to aid in the removing of a few of these, and to give some practical and useful information, has been the aim of.

Ribbon Roads


Book Description

Excerpt from Ribbon Roads: A Motor Tour Abroad The motor-car enables one to accomplish this end. By means of it one can make excursions from the well-known into the less familiar districts and can discover for oneself interest-spots other than those mentioned in a red-bound guide-book. The pace can be regulated at will. Now travelling Slowly where the landscape is full of charm, now hurrying faster (if the road be good) through stretches of barren country, one can always gain a deeper insight into the manners and customs of out-of-the-way communities.

A Motor Scamper 'Cross Canada


Book Description

Excerpt from A Motor Scamper 'Cross Canada: A Human-Interest Narrative of a Pathfinding Journey From Montreal to Vancouver As I swung the car inertly to the right just the faintest sigh came from the passenger by my side. Probably few prospects in America are more pleas ing than the wide sweep of the Lake of Two Mountains from its grove-and-garden shores of luxurious cot tages that re ect the wealth of a great city.

It Might Have Been Worse


Book Description

Excerpt from It Might Have Been Worse: A Motor Trip From Coast to Coast There are so many so-called highways to follow, and numerous routes which, according to the folders, have good roads and first-class accommodations all the way, that hundreds of unsuspecting citizens are tour ing across every year. I can speak only for ourselves, and will doubtless call down the criticism of many who have taken any other route. On the whole, it has been a revelation, and, to my mind, the only way to get a first-hand knowledge of our country, its people, the scenery, and last, but not the least, its roads good.
