By Samuel Sullivan Cox

Book Overview

""A Buckeye Abroad"" is a travelogue written by Samuel Cox, detailing his wanderings through Europe and the Orient in the late 19th century. Cox, a native of Ohio (also known as the Buckeye State), embarked on a journey that took him across the Atlantic to England, France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Palestine, and Egypt. Throughout the book, Cox provides vivid descriptions of the sights, sounds, and people he encountered on his travels. He recounts his experiences exploring ancient ruins, visiting museums and art galleries, attending cultural events, and interacting with locals. Cox also shares his observations on the social and political climate of the places he visited, including commentary on the Ottoman Empire, the Greek War of Independence, and the ongoing conflict between Jews and Arabs in Palestine. Overall, ""A Buckeye Abroad"" offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of travel in the late 19th century, as well as a unique perspective on the cultural and political landscape of Europe and the Orient during that time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
