Abstract

The Intelligent Traveller: What Will a Dollar Buy?
Rothschild, John | April 11, 1934 issue

add to cart   close window

In an article in the March 21, 1934, issue of the journal "The Nation" current travel costs in the European countries most visited by the people of the United States were compared with costs in 1929. It was shown that price reductions at hotels and in transportation have almost canceled the decrease in the dollar's purchasing power. The present article deals with travel costs in countries less familiar to Americans where travel is exceptionally inexpensive, the depreciation of the dollar notwithstanding.
