Excerpt from The Shores and Cities of the Boden See: Rambles in 1879 and 1880; With Maps of the District; And Numerous Original Etchings on Stone by H. Schmidt-Pecht
In the summer of 1879 I addressed a letter to the Times, under the title Can cheapness be combined with enjoyment in foreign travel? Which was followed, in the course of the autumn, by a series of letters with the title of the present work. It appeared to me that the Boden See was little known and less appreciated in England, and that much of its history and legend was a sealed book to the merely English reader. If, in this work, I have not succeeded in showing, that the Lake of Constance and the cities on its shores, are full of interest to the historical student, as well as to the traveller, I am profoundly conscious that I alone am to blame.
