Description
Excerpt from Travels in Lands Beyond the Sea: Beauty and Glory of Western Europe; Eloquent and Reliable Pen Pictures of Castles, Cathedrals and Cities; Palaces, Prisons and People; Museum, Mounments and Mountains; Seas, Ships and Stroms
I met Mr. Linskill, author and editor, the other day, and he told me his new book would soon make its appearance. I predict for the volume a large sale as soon as it is launched. Mr. Linskill is a good descriptive writer and while abroad he traveled with his eyes and ears wide open. The letters that he sent to the Telephone were very interesting, and they gave him ample scope for the exercise of his literary powers; but his book will be still more interesting, for he has had time since his return to scan his note-book carefully and to search for the buried treasures of his mind. 1 am not surprised that Judge Harding, in ordering a copy of the forthcoming book, should predict that it would prove so interesting and valuable that it would supplant in his library a place hitherto occupied by some of the rarest gems in English literature.
From the Plymouth Star: -
Charles D. Linskill, of the Wilkes-Barré Telephone, is arranging his letters from Europe, which were originally published in his paper (where they attracted a great deal of attention and were most favorably commented upon), for publication in book form. The price will be two dollars, which places it within the reach of all. Mr. Linskill's letters have been highly praised and their publication in book form urged by many prominent men.
Nov. 8th, 1888.
From the Evening Leader, Wilkes-Barré, Pa.: -
Mr. Linskill's Book Soon To Be Issued.
"Travels in Lands Beyond the Sea; or, the Beauty and Glory of Western Europe," is the title under which Mr. C. D. Linskill will soon lay before the public a detailed history of his journeyings abroad.
