Excerpt from Across America and Asia: Notes of a Five Years Journey Around the World Extensive travel in the interior of Japan and China under com mission from the native governments, and the long journey from China over the table land of Central Asia, and through Siberia to Europe, brought me face to face with the inhabitants of these interesting countries, and with the influences which Nature has used in moulding them to their present forms. I have tried to present in a continued series of sketches these important regions, which are being brought, by the reaction of the spirit of the age upon their natural capacities, into the circle of interdependent nations. The incidents and adventures of an eventful journey are used freely, as forming some of the best illustrations of the social con dition of the races in the midst of which they occurred.
