No attempt has been made to supplement the plates with elaborate descriptions, for the simple reason that each subject has been selected with a view to having it explain itself. One does not require descriptions of what one can see, at the same time, a brief note attached to each picture establishes its identity and furnishes a clear summary of its character, and, where necessary, of its historical associations or its standard of importance in the world's existence. With these notes as suggestions, and the pictures of the actual scenes before him, the reader has only to turn to any of the many accessible books of reference for the amplification of the minor details of his stock of knowledge, and so complete his trip around the world as if he were making it, guide - book in hand.
The journey which is made to the eastward begins in Ireland, and carries the reader through Scotland and England to the Continent, where he visits Belgium, Holland, Norway, Russia, Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Austria and Italy, to the decaying ruins of Greece and the crumb ling empire of the Turk. The great capitals, like London, Paris and Rome, and the marvelous mountain scenery of Switzerland, are treated with ample fulness. The home of Shakespeare is visited, together with the objects of antiquity in England and in Continental Europe; the art galleries of Paris, of Rome and Florence; the fjords of Norway on the north and the canals of Venice on the south. Egypt is traversed from Alexandria to the Upper Nile. A journey into Palestine includes the Holy City of Jeru salem and the most sacred places of the Bible, like Nazareth and Bethlehem. The traveller passes through Syria to Damascus, and wanders eastward by way of India, China and the Sandwich Islands, to our own continent.
From page to page he goes, from the teeming life of London, Liverpool, Paris and Berlin, with their bustling highways, seething with human activity, into the presence of the Sphinx, into the shadow of the Pyramids, into the ravaged ruins of the Parthenon and the perishing remnants of the6 preface.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
