Author of "Tuscan Hills and Venetian Waters" "When I was LONDON WH ALLEN & CO LIMITED 13 WATERLOO PLACE S W 1893 Liby Blackwell 6-16-25 11952 AUTHOR'S FOREWORD. -:0: IT may be well to explain to my readers that although in two chapters, Val Bregaglia and San Martino di Castrozza, I cross the frontiers of Italy, these border regions possess so many Italian characteristics, that little licence is needed to justify their inclusion under the title of "Here and There in Italy." Part of the volume consists of entirely new matter, but I beg to tender my hearty thanks to the editors of "The National Review," "Macmillan's Magazine,” “The English Illustrated Magazine," "Murray's Magazine," "The Leisure Hour," and "Belgravia," for their courteous permission to reprint papers formerly published in their pages.
