Opis

Excerpt from A Handbook for Travellers in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden Twelve years having elapsed since the publication of the last edition of the 'Handbook for Denmark, Norway, and Sweden,' a new one has become necessary. Few countries probably have undergone so great a change during the last twenty years in the matter of travelling as Scandinavia; and Norway, which was almost a terra incognita, is now in a fair way of becoming as well known as Switzerland. The great influx of English travellers has created an increased demand for luxuries and comfort, and prices have risen accordingly. In 1850 eatable food was a rarity even on the trunk roads of Norway, and travellers, unless provided with their own provisions, were liable to be inconveniently straitened by hunger. All this is now changed, and travelling, for gentlemen, is now as easy in Scandinavia as in the rest of Europe. Great engineering works have been carried out, hills cut down, embankments built, and magnificent roads made, where formerly little better than mere horse-tracks existed. Numerous railways have been opened, and the electric telegraph is now in operation between all the chief towns, and the general continental system of Europe. In addition to this the steam communication has been greatly extended and improved, both on the fjords of the coast and on the great inland lakes. This Handbook endeavours to point out rather where lines of steamers exist, than to give the exact days and hours of their departure, which are liable to change, not only every year, but every month, as the dark autumn nights lengthen. The various changes alluded to have of course necessitated considerable alterations in the minor details of the Handbook, but on the whole the general plan of the former editions, which were most justly praised for their accuracy and completeness, has been adhered to.
