  • Seeing Europe with Famous Authors
    Francis W. Halsey / Francis WHalsey
    The train spins along across great plains gilded by the setting sun; soon night comes, and with it, sleep. At stations remote from one another, German voices shout German names; I do not recognize them by the sound, and look for them in vain upon the map. Magnificent great station buildings are shown up by gaslight in the midst of surrounding darkness, then disappear. We pass H...

  • Seeing Europe with Famous Authors
    Francis W. Halsey / Francis WHalsey
    [A]s the cemetery is small, and it is a precious privilege to sleep in holy ground, the brotherhood are immemorially accustomed, when one of their number dies, to take the longest-buried skeleton out of the oldest grave, and lay the new slumberer there instead. Thus, each of the good friars, in his turn, enjoys the luxury of a consecrated bed, attended with the slight drawback,...

  • Seeing Europe with Famous Authors
    Francis W. Halsey / Francis WHalsey
    I met near the base a young gentleman from Edinburgh who had left Rowardennan before us, and we commenced ascending together... We soon attained the summit, and, climbing up a little mound of earth and stones, I saw the half of Scotland at a glance. The clouds hung just above the mountain-tops, , which rose all around like the waves of a mighty sea. On every side, near and far,...

  • Seeing Europe with Famous Authors
    Francis W. Halsey / Francis WHalsey
    The most prejudiced will not deny that Paris is beautiful; or that there is about her streets and broad, tree-lined avenues a graciousness at once dignified and gay. Stand, as the ordinary tourist does on his first day, in the flowering square before the Louvre; in the foreground are the fountains and bright tulip-bordered paths of the Tuileries-here a glint of gold, there a so...

  • Seeing Europe with Famous Authors
    Francis W. Halsey / Francis WHalsey
    The great beauty of Biarritz is its setting. At Monte Carlo the setting is also beautiful, ravishingly beautiful, but the architecture, the terrace, Monaco’s rock, and all the rest combine to make the pleasing 'ensemble.' At Biarritz the architecture of its Casino and the great hotels is not of an epoch-making beauty, neither are they so delightfully placed. It is the surroundi...

  • Seeing Europe with Famous Authors
    Francis W. Halsey / Francis WHalsey
    You might believe yourself, at sight of this Muscovite architecture, in some chimerical Asiatic city-you could easily take the cathedrals for mosques, the belfries for minarets; but the rational façade of the new palace would bring you back to the very heart of the West and of civilization; a sad thing for a romantic savage like myself!-from 'The Marvelous Treasures of the New ...

  • Seeing Europe with Famous Authors
    Francis W. Halsey / Francis WHalsey
    The most witching element in the enchantment of this river is its stillness, its unfathomable, unbroken quietude. In the sixteenth century it was navigable as far as Toledo, but the mills upon its banks are now for ever silent; no traffic has deflowered its legendary charms; neither boat nor barge cuts a way along its inactive waters.-from 'The Tagus, River of Romance,' by Hann...
