Excerpt from Germany as Described by Great Writers

This book is planned on the same lines as my former ones in this series - Holland, Japan and Russia - and with the same aim in view, - that of giving the tourist and general reader a comprehensive glimpse of an important country.

The task of selection has not been an easy one, for Germany is so rich in picturesque cities, fine architecture, well stocked museums and art-galleries, beautiful scenery, and legendary rivers, lakes, forests and mountains, that it is difficult to omit places that command admiration.

The limitations of a small book, however, admit only of a bird's-eye view of so large and great a country as Germany; and in my selections I have had to keep to general and avoid special descriptions, as a rule. A brief glance at the topography of the country and a historical review of its people is, therefore, followed by descriptions of the four kingdoms and their capitals. A few other cities are added, together with Heligoland, the Rhine, and the famous Harz, Black and Thuringian forests. The next groups of essays deal with social life; and brief surveys of painting, music, politics, and the development of modern industrial Germany close what might be termed a rapid run through this most interesting country.
