There and Back Again, Vol. 1 of 2

Excerpt from There and Back Again, Vol. 1 of 2: In Search of Beauty

The way in which Isis has been received, both by the press and by the public, induces me to hope I have not laboured altogether in vain. The events of a journey are very much like the events of a life, -some gloomy, others gay, at times of a nature to touch the heart deeply, and then again assuming an aspect calculated to pro voke nothing but laughter.
