  1. With 63 illustrations. Mr. Shoemaker is a trained traveler. He has the time and the means to travel in luxury and he has developed his qualities as a keen observer by travels in various parts of the world. He possesses excellent descriptive powers and his pages are sprinkled liberally with humor; giving them a certain personal interest and charm that add to the attractiveness of his travel records.
