Dedication
TO MY CHILD
VERA,
IN THE HOPE THAT ONE DAY SHE MAY TRAVEL
AS HER PARENTS HAVE DONE,
AND
WITH AS MUCH INSTRUCTION
AND
ENJOYMENT.
Epigraph
The favourable reception vouchsafed to “40,000 Miles over Land and Water” has induced me to yield to the kind wishes of many Friends and Constituents, and to record the impressions of my second circle round the world.
