Excerpt from Flying Leaves From East and WestT has usually been my lot, as it is that of most others of the less able and adventurous, to have, in roaming about the world, to make my observations of its novel aspects from the standpoint of one of those great caravansaries, the cosmopolitan hotel. Far be it from me to asperse with unmitigated contempt an institution but for which all the less trodden parts of the earth would efi'ectually have been removed beyond my reach but I think it undeniable that a set of conditions more un favourable to the apprehension of the facts and the appreciation of the lessons to be gathered from a new outlook upon life, it would be hard to conceive of than that afforded by these bewildering halting-places.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
