And if one hasn't had the opportunity to visit these places and things, he may, with the aid of the pictures and reference to this book, make pleasant delusory journeys, and enable himself to talk intelligibly with the oldest travelers. This would be too much to say if many kind readers of the preceding series had nut often said it before. The work has cost not only many a long journey through the countries included-happiest of days, which I wish all could share-but many another for facts and figures, through the various sources supplied by authorship, for which I make acknowledgment of my honest obligations, here and now. So much as to the home use of our book, - with the stereoscope, the graphoscope, or the newer instrument, the touroscope. Lecturers and exhibitors, with the now justly popular and improved magic lantern, will find these descriptions of great value in making selections for their courses, and to contain a full supply of things proper to say when the beautiful glass pictures which photography supplies are projected upon the screen, for audiences not only desire to see the views but to hear interesting descriptions thereof. The subjects have been arranged into journeys or tours, In order that the delight in them may be enhanced. They can be changed and re-arranged as much as the mulplication table and I tremblingly leave that work to the indulgent reader.

Silent films were, of course, never silent at all. However, the sound that used to accompany the screen picture in the early days of cinema has been neglected as an area of study. Altman explores the various musical, narrative, and even synchronized sound systems that enriched cinema before Jolson spoke.
