September 27, 1894 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on two volumes of the book "Teutonic Switzerland.--Romance Switzerland," by W.D. McCrackan. It was a happy thought on the part of McCrackan to write these two volumes, which are intended to be a sort of literary supplement to a guidebook, themselves avoiding all practical directions regarding routes and hotels, but supplying the "atmosphere" which has gradually been banished from the guide-books. His present volumes--might be briefly described as a pleasant mélange of descriptions of cities and mountains, together with historic glimpses and short biographies of famous men and women who were born in Switzerland or made it their home.
