(Boston: Little, Brown, and Company, 1913).

FIRST EDITION AND A WONDERFUL BLEND OF TRAVEL BOOK AND ART HISTORY, and with a healthy dose of Archaeological studies tossed in for good measure. The indomitable Ms. Whiting was a true polymath; journalist, editor, author of poetry and short stories, a critic of art, music, and culture, well read and knowledgeable in history. Though American, she spent a great deal of years between 1896 and 1907 traveling throughout Europe. Item #30808
