Synopsis

Excerpt from Turkish Life and Character, Vol. 2 I never shall forget the shudder that went round the table at Misseri's, nor the chattering chorus and gabble of alarmed dissuasives that followed, when I announced to my friends at that Perote hotel my intention of going for a day or two to Broussa, at once the Cheltenham and Malvern of Turkey. Broussa! What, Broussa in Bithynia, at the foot of Mount Olympus! What, the very nest of infectious diseases and den of fever! Why, I must be stark mad! The sun had turned my brain, to prevent it burning! No one ever went there and came back without fever - a party of five last week, to wit!
