avoided the traditional points OF inter
est and has devoted his work to those
aspects of Germany which are strikingly
typical and indicative OF the spirit OF the
land. Thus, while he includes such large
cities as Berlin. Dresden and Munich. he
adds notes on less frequented towns such
as Goslar. Hildeshem. Augsburg and
Meissen. He opens the work appropri-
ately with Danzig. which may I'm
measure be considered one OF the gates
OF Germany. II Is the first work of Its
kind since Bayard Taylor's Views

He writes with the sympathy and enthu-
siasm of the poet and the musician. The
