"The books are intended to be books OF instruc
tion rather than Of amusement and, in peru
sing them the reader may feel assured that all tho in
formation which they contain, not only in respect to
the countries visited and to the customs usages, and
modes of life that described but also in regard to
the general character of the incidents and adventures
that tho Young travellers meet with is in most strict
accordance with fact. The main design of the
tive is thus the communication of useful knowledge
and everything which they contain, except what is
strictly PERSONAL in relation TO the actors in the story
may be depended upon exactly and scrupulously
true" Published by
