discover many beauties and attractionswhich are not described by the writer.. No attempt has been made toinclude all that is worthy of mention. Only those scenes which are of tran-scendent interest have been touched upon, and in the pages which follow,the reader will only obtain a birds-eye vi6w of the tour. This being thecase, the tourist can readily imagine what pleasure lies before him. In thisinstance distance docs not lend enchantment to the view. To penetrate theheart of the majestic mountains, to cross and re-cross the great RockyRange, to gaze with breathless awe into the defiles of abysmal chasms, andto behold with reverent, upturned eyes the ancient summits of heaven-defying snow-crowned peaks, are privileges that familiarity can never makecommonplace nor belittle. Such privileges are granted to the tourists,Around the Circle, and with full confidence that he who takes the journey:will find his brightest anticipations more than realised, this little book isplaced before him.
