Excerpt from Americans: And the Americans Thackebay, in one of his amusing novels, remarks, To see with ones own eyes, men and countries, is better 1 than reading all the books of travels in the world. So think the majority of English parents in affluent circumstances, and accordingly the education of young men who have attended the classes at our great seminaries of learning, is not considered as complete until they have made what we usually style the grand tour. In lands celebrated by poets and philosophers of the olden time, they finish their classical studies, and begin their observations on the aspect of things in the world. Having in the halls of the university repeated the burning language of Cicero, and pored over the finished strains of the JVTantuan bard, they set out on a pilgrim age to the ruins of that forum which once rung with the plaudits of excited Romans; and to those scenes of rural beauty which Virgil, in his Greorgics, so accurately describes.
