Overview

Excerpt from Switzerland: Picturesque and Descriptive During a very long period, Switzerland and the Alps have been among the most beautiful regions sought by millions of tourists from all parts of the world. They display the greatest scenic attractions of Europe in their grandest form, and especially for American visitors have a special charm that is most seductive. In going or coming, the noble Rhine: the Great River of the German Fatherland, is usually fol lowed, up or down, and thus becomes a part of the popular Swiss tour. In the following pages there have been compiled, largely as the result of personal observation, much of the scenic description, history and romance of these charming regions, which have had such an im portant share in European contentions and develop ment in the past, as-they now contribute so greatly to the pleasure of the army of the world's travellers.
