At Large in Germany (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from At Large in Germany It is this latter character, this alter ego, who is so talkative about his ideas and his impressions in the following. It is the Average American who sees, who enjoys, and who scoffs. It is true that no one (not even the author himself) cares about the personal ego; when he shaves, with whom he bunks at night, and how he enjoys his dinners. But when this important figure, the Average American, so often mentioned of late but never met, so much quoted but never heard, when he is near unto seasickness, or when he is bored, we listen attentively. Nothing in the life of this great hero is too insignificant for our notice. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
