From having travelled somewhat extensively in former years in Europe and the East, I can say with entire truth that you have succeeded in combining more that is instructive and valuable for the traveller than is contained in any one or series of hand-books that I have ever met with.—T. B. Lawrence, U. S. Consul General, Florence, February 15, 1866.

Every traveller who carries this guide-book and uses it faithfully will find it not only an invaluable companion on his journey, but a most useful book of reference on his return.—Congregationalist.

A volume that should be in every traveller's hands.—N. Y. Standard.

To all tourists we recommend this guide-book.—N. Y. Herald.

No European hand-book can be found that is equally comprehensive and satisfactory.—Cincinnati Commercial.

It is concise, giving all necessary information to the traveller.—N. Y. World.
