"Try to arrange your journey so as to reach Europe by the first of May. With a view to this, secure your steamship ticket very early in the year, and if your allowance for the trip is limited buy a return ticket. By so doing you may save yourself some anxiety as the end of your journey approaches."--The Complete Pocket-guide to Europe (1868) by Edmund Clarence Stedman |
