Excerpt from Guide to the Eastern Mediterranean: Including Greece and the Greek Islands, Constantinople, Smyrna, Ephesus, Etc
While all necessary practical information has been given in the briefest possible form, special attention has been paid to the historical, archaeological, and artistic features of the countries to which the books relate.
Special pains have been taken to have the maps and plans accurate and up-to-date. At the end of the portion of the volume relating to each country, contained therein will be found a bibliography, to enable the student to supplement the information contained in this guide-book, or to continue his studies should he have the time and inclination to do so. But all the essential facts, both for his material comfort and intellectual enjoyment of the scenes visited, are, we believe, contained within the covers of each book in this series. The text is anonymous, but each portion is written by a qualified and competent author, familiar not only with the country visited, but with its art, history, and antiquities.
