Book Description
Excerpt from From Cape Cod to Dixie and the Tropics These sketches of travel were written before the breaking out of the present rebellion in the Southern States; but as, on the occurrence of this event, letters very properly yielded to arms, they were withheld from publication. Now, however, when the public mind is turning to books for momentary relief from the long-drawn story of battles and campaigns, it may not be ill-timed to give to the press an account of a pleasure journey, made, in part, through the Southern States; and a portion of which may serve as a memento of the happy days - not soon to return, I fear - when there existed between the inhabitants of the Northern and Southern sections of the country a free interchange of services and hospitalities.
