Author Description

Excerpt from Travels in Germany, Prussia and Switzerland: Including Some Account of His Early Life, Conversion, and Ministerial Labours in the United States The following pages are submitted to the public With great difiidence. They originated in the earnest request Of many personal friends of Mr. Hiestand, that he would give some account Of his Visit to Europe in 1835. But the number of works that have been issued from the press, re lative to the European character, customs, and other matters, rendered it difficult to suppose that there could be any room for another. Continued solicitations, how ever, induced the author to collate and transcribe some notes and memoranda which were taken While in Europe. These were submitted to a few friends.
