“As a very young man, Mr. Stanley Unwin, the well-known publisher, made a
trip round the world to study bookselling conditions in such countries
as South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, Japan, etc. He was accompanied
by his future brother-in-law, Severn Storr, and during the trip each
young man wrote an account of their doings. This book consists of a
selection of the two journals, edited, annotated, and united into one
whole. It makes most amusing and lively reading as the two young men
were both very observant, and they were by no means conventional
travellers. But although their adventures were varied and at times
exciting, as when “Johnnie,” guiding a party over a mountain through a
mist, led them all to the brink of a 4,ooo-ft. precipice, the true charm
of the book lies in its human interest. Because the journals are real
documents the characters of the writers emerge clear and distinct, as
characters always emerge in the best, but only in the best, travel
books. When the reader, having finished the World Tour, puts down the
book with a sigh, he feels that he has made two new friends.”
