Synopsis
Excerpt from Over the Sea: A Summer Trip to Britain
The reader will see that the point of view in these sketches is mainly that of a traveller guided by literary and historical attractions. Commerce and politics, the farm and the sh0p, science and statistics, receive no attention whatever. The writer's journey to the east was a journey to scenes associated with the charms of history and poetry.
