Title: A 1930s Around The World Cruise
Product review: This book, first printed in 1936, was a State of Texas adopted textbook in 1937. Contemporaneous with its publication, the author presented lectures,taken from its text, to school assemblies. The book relates an around the world cruise taken in the early 1930s when cruising was available to only a few travelers. Historically, prior to the commencement of World War II, its observations and comments are fascinating. From a traveler's perspective its descriptions of famous sites and locations is a temptation to do likewise. Having found this book in the collection of a Great Aunt retired school teacher in the early 1950s, it is today a treasured part of my own collection. "How Shall I Know Unless I Go" is a sentiment expressed by the author which appropriately describes all of us who simply want to go to any of those places where we have not been.
