EARLY PIONEER TRAVEL-TENDENCIES WITH SOME RESULTS. / (/ TORONTO : THE COPP, CLARK COMPANY, LIMITED, PRINTERS, COLBORNE SfREET. 1895. f<^ 9^ THE LO(;-SHANTY BOOK-SHELF FOR 1895; EARLY PKJNEKll TilAVEL-TENDENCIES, WITH SOME RESULTS. I have this year placed on the shelf devoted to siioh a purpose, in the Pioneer's Lodge on the In(histrial Exiiibition grounds at Toronto, during the great September Exhibition, a number of vohimes labelled " My Travel Books," they being the representatives and to a great extent the outcome in the hrst instance of a smaller collection now for the most part dispersed, and irretrievably lost, which consisted of productions of a somewhat juvenile character, con- taining brief narratives of early voyages and discoveries, shipwrecks, conflicts with savages in the South Seas, and so on. The eflect of such narratives on one's own boyish mind, as on that doubtless of hundreds of others, was to excite a certain hunger for travel and exploration which must some day be satisfied. Even in the primitive days of Canada when literature of all kinds was almost inaccessible in the backwoods, reading of this kind in some way or other did come before the eyes of boys. Among the homely contents of the chests brougiit over by immigrants from the "Old Country " were often found the remains of old books of travel which had been favourites among members of the family. At an early period I had certainly picke.' up in some quarter or other "Narratives of Captain Cook's Discoveries," " Aaaon's Voyage Round the World," " Dampier's Voyage Round the World," "Alexander Selkirk's Life in the Island of Juan Fernandez" worked up by De Foe into " Robinson Crusoe," " The Life of Prince Lee-Boo of the Pelew Islands." Beechey's "Mutiny of the Bounty," Byron's " Narrative of the Wreck of the Wager," and so forth. By a perusal of those the travel tendency was no doubt to some extent promoted. On looking back 1 can see now tliat it was not altogether an overmastering thirst for learning, technically so called, that led one, in 1833, to assent to the proposal made by friends that we should be transferred from the midst of very primitive surroundings in Canada to the University of Camln-idge ; but the travel tendency ami the prospect of a more than three years' sojourn within the bounds of beautiful and richly-storied England had something to do with that assent. 3 y itn f^ 4 TJIK L0(i-8HANTV UOOK-SHKLF FOU 1895. It is well reineiiibered that at almost the first iii8{>ection of the Cainhri«lge University Calendar the mention of Travelling Haohelors caught the eye and took the fancy. The said " Travelling Machelors " were two young men selected every three years to travel for the space of three years in foreign lan<ls, each hy a dill'erunt route, with the injunction laid upon them that they were to write back to the Vice Chancellor of the University two letters in the l^atin language descriptive of local customs, curiosities, and su forth. In one's simpli- city the winners of this distinction seemed to be personages whose lot was in an especial <legree to ))e envied. The pleasant tours shadowed forth in the travel books forming the Log-shanty book-shelf of 1895 were not, however, any of them, undertaken with a view to the fulfilment of the duties of an .Vcademic position. They were the legitimate outcome in the first instance of the travel - tendency aroused in a young (Canadian mind years ago by such narratives of adventure and travel as those already referred to, but afterwards augmented and rendered more intelligent by the perusal of such works as those in the following list, collected front time to time in after years ; some samples of which are likewise displayed. The travel tendency, after all, in the case of the writer, never led to what would be esteemed a very wide field of achievement in the present day, as will be seen by a glance at the list of travel books appended below. The regions traversed were some now become, through the facilities of locomotion, quite familiar to a large number of persons. Belgium, with Brussels and Waterloo, the Rhine, the Alps and Switzerland with Basle, LAusanne, Lake Leman and Geneva ; France and the Rhone, with Lyons, Aries, Nisnies, and Marseilles ; Italy with the Arno, the Appenines, the Tiber and Rome ; Naples and its Bay, with Pompeii and Vesuvius, with Posilippo and Puteoli. Had one lived some forty or fifty years later, exploration most probably would have been extended to Egypt and the East, to Nineveh and its remains, to Palestine, the V^alleys of the Jordan and the Red Sea. But such ambitious excursions were tjuitc out of the question for ordinary tourists. There can be no doubt but that the free and intelligent use of the Holy Scriptures by the young, and in their hearing, has in not a few instances the effect of inciting a desire to visit the localities mentioned. There is a certain fascination in the terms Parthian, Medes, Elamites, dwellers in Mesopotamia, Capi)adocia, Pontus, Phrygia, Pamphylia, the parts of Lybia about Cj'rene, ('rete, Arabia, Melita, Patmos, and we secretly wish to become further cognizant of them. So far, however, as Palestine and it?? sacred places are concerned, it is just as well perhaps that matters should have been as they were, when we are informed by such writers as Kinglake in his "Eothen, or traces of travel brought home from the East," of the pious frauds practised on visitors from the days of the Crusaders to the present time — deceptions which tend greatly to mar the reverential feeling desirable to be retained in regard to that land and those sacred places. It is bad enough to be shocked at Rome TIIK LO(5-SHANTY UOOK-MUKhK KOK 1895, 6 with the grountUess fables with which the ear of visitors is dinned touching St. Peter and his pretended doings there, who, it may he, was never in Italy at all, hut it would he more jarring to one's sense of propriety to havu similar fictions thrust upon him at every turn, touching (Jne more to he reverenced than St. Peter. More travel hooks illustrative of Knglaml might have l)een named. Subsequently to the Krst transplantation, four visits to the well remembered and dear old land were made in '3:1, '40, '.)•-», and '66 respectively, two of them of considerable duration and all diligently made use of for the purposes of exploration and study. In the process, the broad Atlantic was nine times traversed, the voyage on two occasions each occupying a period of nearly eight weeks, so thataua(hlition perhaps ought to have been made to our travel books in reference to sea experiences ; but all these things in the present age of general locomotion seem to be, as we have already said, too trivial to be dwelt upon. Travel books too might have been inter-speraed having reference to this Continent ; but here, again, inter-o<;eauic railways and other conveniences for locomotion have now rendereil early l(>cal excursions (juite insignilicant, con- sisting as these did— in one's own case— of, for the most part, tlying lioliday trips to Chicago say, the Praiiies, the Mississippi at P^ock Island, Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Burlington, New Jersey. Long Branch, Boston, Nahant; and in our own Cana<lian territory to (Jiiebec, St. Lawrence, and the Saguenay, Montreal, the Ottawa an<l Bytown, the Maiiitoulins, the Sault ; Detroit, Michilimackinac and so on, all now more or less familiar to every one. The joy of harvest in the iields of literature relating to travel ami other subjects so often experienced came to an end, in the writer's case in 1888. In early boyhood an embarassing shortsightedness had been the penalty endured for an undue poring over small print, over Latin and Greek texts, and the adoption of a minute style of handwriting. In the year named the trouble assumed the form of a partial paralysis of the optic nerve. A dense veil of blue mist, not quite opaque but opaque enough to render all objects undefined, all print illegible, and writing impracticable, the features of every human face blurred and impossible to be recognized, pictures, maps, engravings, all no longer to be deciphered. Happily the hue of this veil is of no gloomy tint, but is ethereal and rather natural looking, promising all the while to be simply transient. September, 1895, H. S. 9^ VKT. 6 TIIK LOr.
