Author Description

Excerpt from Acta Victoriana, October 1907-June1908, Vol. 31 We had glorious weather all the time with the exception of two days and visited Jena, Nuremberg, Regensburg, Munich, Innsbruck, Lake Constance, St. Gallen, the lovely district of Appenzell, Lucerne, Zurich, Singen, the Black Forest, Strassburg, Heidelberg, Mannheim, as well as the other cities already mentioned. It was an ideal route, grand weather, and we benefited in every way by it. One night's strenuous battling was our only unpleasant experience, recalled a few days ago by a postcard from Greece in which my friend wrote "of fighting all unarmed and fighting all alone." Did he meet as many foes as we together fought that August night, 1906, then I am indeed sorry for him. Our first stop was the university town of Jena, where the student is king.
