Introduction

In the rich history of tourism and travel industry, the role and importance of globetrotter’s adventures are often underestimated or simply not considered.

Between 1850 and 1945 hundreds of globetrotters travelled the world in extravagant ways, without the knowledge, experience or funding necessary for the assignment. Events and personal stories which provides an interesting key to interpreting tourism development.

The Globetrotters Directory offers an incomplete collection of those eclectic figures, edited mainly using written sources (books, periodicals and postcards). As noted by several researchers, some of those adventures are faked and thus it makes it more complicated to deal with this question.

Finally, it was also noted that a significant number of adventures left very little evidence: the information retrieval is just at the beginning!

Introduzione

Nella ricca storia del turismo e dei viaggi, il ruolo e le vicende dei globetrotters sono spesso aspetti dimenticati o nel migliore dei casi esposti nelle note a piè di pagina dei tomi.

Tra il 1850 e il 1945 centinaia di globetrotters si lanciarono nelle iniziative più stravaganti, spesso senza preparazione adeguata e senza fondi. Vicende e microstorie che nel loro eterogeneo complesso contribuiscono a fornire una chiave di lettura interessante del fenomeno turistico.

Il Repertorio dei globetrotters fornisce un elenco incompleto di questi personaggi eclettici, elaborato prevalentemente sulla base di attestazioni scritte (cartoline, articoli di giornale, libri). Come evidenziato da diversi ricercatori, alcuni di questi casi sono in realtà dei falsi, fatto che complica non poco il recupero delle informazioni.

Senza dimenticare che un numero importante di peripli non ha lasciato tracce o ne ha lasciate poche e disperse: il lavoro è solo all’inizio!

Introduction Dans la riche histoire du tourisme et des voyages, le rôle et les récits des globetrotteurs ont été souvent oubliés ou – dans le meilleur des cas – relégué dans les pieds de page des ouvrages du secteur.

Entre le 1850 et le 1945 de centaines de globetrotteurs ont réalisé les initiatives bizarres, souvent sans une préparation adéquate et sans argent. Il s’agit de récits et de micro-histoires qui dans leur complexe hétérogène peuvent fournir une clé de lecture significative du phénomène touristique.

L’Annuaire des globetrotteurs présente une sélection de personnages insolites, rédigée principalement sur la base de témoignages écrits (cartes postales, articles de journaux, livres). Comme l'ont signalé plusieurs auteurs, certains cas ne présentent pas suffisamment d’attestation et peuvent être considéré comme des faux, fait qui complique considérablement la récolte d’informations sur ce sujet.

Sans oublier qu’un nombre important d’aventures n’ont pas laissés de traces ou elles ont laissé uniquement d’attestations dispersés : le travail vient juste de commencer! www.museumoftravel.org 3 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

Abbott Leland (w392) An intriguing tale of contrasting worlds A Fort Garry couple are hot on the trail of two Manitoba dog mushers who travelled from the Arctic to City in 1938-39. Anne and Graham Gieg have been gathering clues since last May about the odyssey of Graham's great uncle, Leland Abbott, and his friend Hector Despins, and plan to write a book about the off-beat adventure. "It's the family legend," says Gieg, who recalls a visit to his great-uncle's house when he was 10 years old. "The house was full of incredible keepsakes from all the places he'd travelled." Unfortunately, much of that material has been lost. "It's been a bit of a detective story," he says. The Giegs have been gathering material from newspapers, family members and the Hudson's Bay Company archives, and by soliciting memories from people who met the mushers during their trip. The story is an intriguing tale of contrasting worlds, says Gieg, containing within it the wilderness of the North and the metropolis of , the solitude of the trapper's life and life in the media spotlight. It's also the story of one last civilian adventure before the attention of the world -- and the energies of the two adventurers -- became focused on the Second World War. Abbott and Despins were trapping muskrats and guiding mineral prospectors around a settlement called Tavane, in what is now Nunavut, when they read a six-month-old magazine article about people travelling to the New York World's Fair by unusual means. As muskrat pelts weren't fetching much of a price at the time, they decided in the fall of 1938 to mush to the fair at Flushing Meadows, N.Y. The trip was full of unexpected twists and turns. They ran out of snow around Dauphin, and a farmer helped them to create a wheeled sled. Unfortunately, the powerful sled dogs were no match for the home-made contraption and it fell apart soon after. From Winnipeg on, the mushers travelled on a more durable wheeled sled made from a car chassis, following a convoluted route that took them to via Iowa. Chicago turned out to be a rough town, even with Al Capone in jail, and the duo nearly rolled into a bank robbery and shootout. That's not the only aspect of the story that seems made for Hollywood. Abbott actually met his wife-to-be during a stop in Pennsylvania. Arriving in New York in April, 1939, in time for the opening of the World's Fair, Despins and Abbott and their dogs became celebrities. "The lead dog is supposed to have been the first dog on television," says Gieg, explaining that RCA first unveiled the brand-new technology at the New York fair. "This was 20 years before Lassie." They visited hospitals, participated in a travelling show, and attended openings of a James Cagney movie called Torrid Zone and, more appropriately perhaps, a Sgt. Preston movie. They also met boxing champion Joe Louis, according to legend, taking the dog team to the boxer's training camp in New Jersey. Eventually they returned to to enlist in the Armed Forces. Despins was declared medically unfit because of an earlier injury, says Gieg, but he ended up driving bulldozers during the construction of the Highway in 1942-43. Abbott joined the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1941 and became a bomber pilot. After the war, Despins became a engineer and was involved in developing Thompson's nickel mining industry. Abbott "fell in love with the ocean," says Gieg, and eventually opened a fish business on the coast called Abbott's Frozen Fish. Fascinating as the journey was, the Giegs have discovered that it was by no means unique. A string of Canadian adventurers undertook long dog sled trips in the 1930s, including William Campbell, who mushed from The Pas to Chicago for the 1933 World's Fair, and King Taylor, who mushed from The Pas to Halifax and back. The Giegs expect to spend another year digging up details of the journey, and hope to wrap up their investigation by following the dog sledders' path -- in a more conventional vehicle. Anyone with information about the adventure can call the Giegs at 832-2606.

Allen Thomas Gaskell Jr. (w1635) Foreword The boldness and courage that Thomas Allen and William Sachtleben display in this book is impressive. On June 14, 1890, just one day after they graduated from Washington University in Saint Louis, Missouri, they set out on a record -breaking journey around the world. As they put it, they did it hoping to add practical experience to the book knowledge they had acquired in college. As they traveled, they hoped to meet the people of the world face-to-face, unhindered by protective tour guides and luxurious accomodations. That's why in this book you will see them constantly scheming to escape the zaptiehs (guards) that local leaders force upon them. It's also why they endure, with only modest complain, such utterly horrible living conditions. As their primary means of travel they chose the then-new "safety ". As they admitted, it wasn't because they were experienced bicyclists. At that time, few people were. Earlier forms of the bicycle had been awkward and dangerous. With its two equal-sized wheels, chain-driven rear wheel, and inflated rubber tires, the safety bicycle was such a dramatic improvement that virtually all present-day follow its design. In a sense, the 300 million bicycles now in China owe their existence to these two young men who first demonstrated the advantages of a "little mule that you drive by the ears and kick in the sides to make him go". The inspiration for their journey was apparently then popular two volume, 1887-88 work, Around the World on a bicycle. (Stevens bicycle had been what was then called the ordinary design, wich precariously poised its rider some six feet in the air atop a giant wheel). Parts of their route were similar to that of Stevens, but they were proud of the fact that they succeeded at the very point where Stevens failed. Legal and visa difficulties forced Stevens south through rather than along the more adventurous route Allen and Sachtleben took through almost lawless regions where and China were then vying for power. This book covers the most interesting part of their 15'000 mile, round-the-world trip. It leaves out the 8'000 miles they traveled (like Stevens) across Europe and and focuses on their 7'000 mile trip through from Constantinople (Istanbul), then the political center of the Near East, to Peking (today's Beijing), capital of the most populous nation in the Far East. In 1895, just two years after they returned to the United States, another cyclist, Frank G. Lenz (1867-94), was murdered while attempting repeat their adventure.

Alling Lillian (w1636) In the summer of 1927, Lillian Alling, a young Russian immigrant, homesick and compelled to perform menial tasks for a living in New York, made up her mind to go back to her homeland in Europe. Because she had no money for transportation, she decided to hike back to her native country. She tramped to Chicago, to Minneapolis, to Winnipeg, refusing all invitations to ride. She was next seen on the Telegraph Trail in the northern part of British Columbia, Canada, a small pack on her back and a length of iron pipe in her hand for protection, heading towards Alaska. The provincial police at Hazelton prevented her from making a winter journey through the Canadian wilds, but they were able to detain her only until spring. Starting out again, she hiked along the Telegraph Trail, over the wild mountain passes, finally reaching www.museumoftravel.org 8 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

Bapasola Jal P. (w1676) Around the world bicycle trip memoirs to be released after 80 yrs Vadodara, April 18 One of the three men was a Barodian; almost 80 years after it was first published, his son will release a new edition of the book today Just in their twenties and living off a shoestring budget, three young Parsis, one from Baroda, ventured on the first ever trip around the world on bicycles on October 15, 1923. The trio covered 44,000 miles in three years and three months across 27 countries and four continents. On their return, Adi Hakim from Vadodara, Jal Bapasola from Mumbai and Rustom Bhumgara from Pune, who later became a freedom fighter, wrote a book of their memoirs from the epic journey, of which but a few copies still exist. The original book includes a foreword by Jawarharlal Nehru and comments from leaders around the world like Benito Mussolini and Calvin Coolidge.” Now, after five years of labour and commitment, Hakim’s son Daryous will release a new edition of the book in Vadodara on Saturday, almost 80 years after it was first published. Says Daryous, who is fondly called Dara: “The original line-up of cyclists was six, but only three completed the tour, with three others returning to India for various reasons. In their book, the trio believed they wanted to take India to the world, even as they were caught up in the fervour of the freedom movement.” He says the three were left with not much money and did odd jobs while travelling, for meeting their expenses for food, clothing and shelter. They decided on the trip after meeting at the Mumbai Weightlifting Club, he says. Dara and his wife Roda began their own quest to re-publish the epic memoir in 2003. “Talking to my six brothers in the early nineties, I realised that all of them did not even have a copy of the book and neither did many of the grandchildren,” says Dara. But as Roda says, not everybody seemed interested in the book till finally Delhi-based Roli Books agreed to publlish the book. “Even then it took five years for the release of the new edition. It was a famous book when it was released sometime around 1928. But now we have no idea how many even exist. We believe this is a tale that people should know about,” says Roda. “When the publisher agreed, it took a huge load off our minds, but it was more contentment than anything else. Strangely, My father-in-law and his friends returned from their trip on April 18, 1928,” says Roda. She adds that they even managed to get in touch with the families of Jal Bapsola and Rustom Bhumgara mostly through the Internet and Parsi magazines. “They seemed even more excited about the release as even they had but few copies of the book,” Roda says. Dara says it was the spirit of adventure in the book that inspired him to join the Indian Navy in 1951. “It is written in a very witty style full of awe of an unseen world. After reading it in my teens I was enthused to join the Navy, where I served for 10 years,” says Dara, who left the services to pursue a career in www.museumoftravel.org 11 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org management.

Bardiaux Marcel (w1678) La fin de la croisière de la "Belle Etoile" Nous avons raconté comment ce jeune navigateur, parti des bords de la Marne le 4 mai dernier sur son canoé, était arrivé, après de nombreuses aventures à Constantinople. Empruntant canaux, fleuves, -roulant parfois son canoé sur les routes, visitant Vienne, Budapest, Belgrade, arrivant à la mer Noire le 23 août, essuyant une tempête le long des côtes rocheuses de la Bulgarie, il arrive enfin à Constantinople: Son projet initial comportait un retour par mer. Marcel Bardiaux vient de rentrer à . Il a résumé ici pour nos lecteurs le récit de son retour mouvementé. Ayant enfin réussi à gagner Constantinople où je fus admirablement reçu à bord du Théophile-Gautier, par la mer de Marmara et les Dardanelles j'atteignis les côtes de Grèce. Je passe ainsi Alexandropolis et Cavala sans malheurs, mais casse de nouveau mon canoé en doublant le mont Athos, où la mer est toujours très mauvaise. J'ai beaucoup de peine à gagner Salonique où je suis obligé de m'arrêter trois semaines pour remettre la Belle Etoile en état de poursuivre son long voyage. Le 22 octobre, je poursuis mon voyage sur le Pirée que j'atteins le 11 novembre après une traversée très mouvementée. J'allai visiter Athènes, et à mon retour je reçus de très mauvaises nouvelles sur l'état de la mer, par les officiers de l'Angkor (paquebot des Messageries Maritimes comme le Théophile-Gautier) qui me déconseillèrent vivement la traversée de l'Adriatique en cette saison avec une telle embarcation. Le commandant me proposa même de me prendre à bord et de me débarquer à Naples, première escale de l'Angkor. Je me laissai tenter, et pour la première fois depuis le début du voyage, la Belle Etoile navigua sans aucun danger sur une mer courroucée... Mais à Naples, où je débarque le 18 novembre, la douane n'est pas très aimable,surtout envers les Français, et malgré toutes mes tentatives de conciliation, je n'arrive pas à m'entendre avec elle. Les conditions de débarquement ne sont vraiment pas acceptables: soit payer les frais de douane, qui sont exorbitants, soit laisser bateau et bagages à la douane pendant mon séjour en Italie. La rage au coeur, sur les conseils du commandant, je me rembarque sur l'Angkor qui me dépose deux jours plus tard à Marseille. Après de touchants adieux, je reprends mon voyage interrompu, à bord de mon canoé. Contre un fort vent debout, je gagne Sète, puis par le canal du Midi atteins Toulouse, après avoir passé une centaine d'écluses! Là, je fais le portage sur la Garonne, beaucoup plus pittoresque et combien moins monotone que le canal, et en quatre étapes j'arrive à Bordeaux. A ce moment, je reçois une lettre de ma famille m'annonçant le mois de mars comme date de mon incorporation militaire. Et, consultant mes cartes, je suis obligé de me rendre à l'évidence; il m'est absolument impossible de rentrer par les côtes de l'Atlantique et de la Manche, puis par la Seine jusqu'à Paris, en si peu de temps, surtout en cette saison où il faut compter avec les tempêtes. Et voici comment je rentrai à Paris par mes seuls moyens: descendant la Gironde jusqu'à Blaye, je renouvelle ma performance d'Allemagne en traînant mon canoé sur son jusqu'à Orléans. La route est bonne heureusement, mais non dépourvue de côtes, surtout aux environs de Limoges. Après trois jours de repos, www.museumoftravel.org 12 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org j'embarque sur le canal d'Orléans (avec les indispensables écluses) qui, à Montargis, me conduit dans celui du Loing. Aucun danger sur ce paisible canal, mais je passe les trois derniers jours sous la neige et le gel, et je campe toujours. A Saint-Mammès, la Seine en crue me transporte à Juvisy en moins d'une journée. J'y arrive le dimanche 8 novembre et débarque à la Société Nautique de la Haute-Seine à Draveil où je gare mon canoé, pendant mon séjour dans ma famille habitant tout près d'ici. Je veux mettre mes notes de voyage au point avant d'arriver à Paris, et avancer mon livre qui paraîtra prochainement sous le titre : Un grand voyage sur un petit bateau. Je suis rentré à Paris le 1er mars à bord de la Belle-Etoile et j'ai accosté près du Pont-Neuf où j'ai eu la joie de recevoir l'accueil fraternel de quelques amis et de la presse sportive.

Bird Isabella Lucy (w1714) Life of a Victorian adventuress: Incredible story of clergyman's daughter who braved malaria, floods and wars to trek across China At a time when few women would leave their houses alone, Isabella Bird braved war, floods and male scorn to complete arduous solo journeys in America and the Far East. www.museumoftravel.org 17 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

From 1894 to 1897 the Victorian explorer trekked across China while it was with war with , documenting the lives of the men and women she met through detailed written accounts and a collection of vivid photographs. Some of her incredible journeys, published in her 1899 work in The Yangtze and Beyond, are now the subject of a new book by Deborah Ireland. 'She was the most incredible woman, and a true role model for women today,' Ireland told MailOnline Travel. 'Isabella didn't become famous as a travel writer until she was 44 - at that time women just didn't have careers as writers. And it wasn't until she was 60 that she discovered photography. She broke the mould.' In her book, Ireland charts Bird's three years spent travelling in China and reprints her stunning photographs of Chinese daily life gradually being infiltrated by European clothing and customs. Isabella Bird turned to writing as a way to make money for her and her unmarried sister Born in 1831 the daughter of a clergyman, as Ireland writes: 'The adventuress who travelled and rode in all weathers, exploring remote and dangerous regions, was writing about a life in sharp contrast to the one originally envisaged for her.' The intrepid Yorkshire woman started writing in 1854 when she travelled to America to mend a broken heart. But it wasn't until 1875 that she found fame with an account of her experiences in Hawaii. Bird was on her way home from an ill-fated trip to when she fell in love with the islands. She initially wrote extensive accounts of her escapades to her sister, and decided that writing would provide a much-needed income for the unmarried pair. On her return, Bird embarked on her publishing career and her candid accounts of her travel became instant bes-sellers, and she hasn't been out of print since. Ireland writes: 'As a respected international traveller her views were sought by prime ministers, ambassadors and the newspaper men of the day. 'Her books were engaging, accessible and entertaining and she opened up a world of travel to the armchair explorer.' Despite saying she was too old for arduous journeys, Bird travelled 8,000 miles during an extended trip to China, travelling on horseback and in carts, by boat and in a sedan chair, using her newly acquired camera and photographic skills to document her journey. She traversed the country, from Hangchow (Hangzhou) to and from one end of the River Yangtze to the other as well as venturing into and Japan. In 1894 she set off from Liverpool to the Far East unaware she was travelling into the First Sino-Japanese War between China and Japan over control of Korea. She was deported from Korea on a Japanese steamer with no money and luggage and only the clothes on her back and was forced to take refuge in China. There she experienced a flood on the Manchurian Plain and risked her life helping drowning villagers in terrific storms before succumbing to malaria. She then broke her arm when the cart she was travelling in overturned just miles from the house of the missionary who was to take her in. Confined to the town of Mukden (Shenyang) by her injuries, she spent time getting to know the missionary doctors and photographing their patients, many of whom suffered from leprosy or the effects of opium addiction. Her photographs of this time show pagodas and palaces as well as the mean back streets and the ravaged faces of disese sufferers. While travelling in the Chinese interior she managed to avoid the plagues of rats and other vermin by suspending her clothes and boots on the tripod of her camera. She adopted Chinese dress as the tight fitting, tailored clothes she was used to were considered offensive by the local population. However she did not quite escape the curiosity or hostility of the locals who were not used to seeing a foreigner, let alone a foreign woman, travelling. Ireland writes: 'Overnight halts were a problem because of the stir she created by her arrival. This could range from curiosity to extreme hostility – from holes drilled through the walls of her room followed by whispering and giggling, to a full-blown riot with shouts of "Foreign devil", "Child eater".' She also received the scorn of her countrymen, with archaeologist Sir Austen Henry Layard writing to her publisher's son: 'I must say I think the woman must be devoid of all delicacy and modesty who could travel as she did, without a female attendant among a crowd of dirty Persian muleteers and others.' www.museumoftravel.org 18 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

However Bird's account of her travels was hailed by one reviewer at the time as 'one of the most thoroughly documented accounts of late nineteenth century China ever written.' In response to Sir Austen criticism, Ireland writes: 'Not bad for an account of a journey "undertaken for recreation an interest solely" or "but to satisfy her curiosity and love of travel".' And what about Bird's legacy? 'Never give up! And don't think you're ever too old to do anything,' Ireland tells us. 'If you want, it's possible to have a new career at 60. She certainly did.' www.dailymail.co.uk

Brown William M. (w1747) William Brown, globetrotter extraordinaire accompanied by a New Foundland dog a female wolf and pup, arrived in the city at about four o'clock Tuesday afternoon and registered at the Myers house, where he spent the night. Brown, who is about thirty years old and talks with a slight German accent, is from Nome, Alaska. He left that territory six years ago on a $10,000 wager that he would traverse 25,000 miles in the United States, either by foot or by means of a sledge pulled by his animal companions, the sale of souvenir postcards of himself being his only means of sustenance and return within seven years with either the same wolf or one www.museumoftravel.org 22 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org of her pups in his possession. He has already made 23,000 miles and will complete the entire distance at Seattle, from where he will board a boat homeward bound to claim his stake, presumably in next June or July. The strange combination renewed their journey at seven o'clock this morning, bound for Marshfield. From there they will go to Mellen and thence straight across the country to the coast. Both the man and the beasts appeared to be in fine health and spirits. If anything the man was in the better condition. It is Brown's intention to hitch the dog and the big wolf together to a sledge when snow falls, this being tried previously with good results. The STEVENS POINT Daily Journal 30.10.1912

Burnaby Frederick (w1751) Frederick Gustavus BURNABY (1842-1885) Portrait of Frederick BurnabyBritish soldier, traveller and adventurer. Frederick Burnaby was born in Bedford on the 3rd March 1842. He was educated at Bedford Grammar School and Harrow. In 1859 he joined the Royal Horse Guards and was made Colonel in 1881. During 1875 he travelled with General Gordon in the Sudan and that winter he journeyed across the Russian Steppes on horseback. This extremely hazardous and dangerous venture resulted in the book ‘Ride to Khiva’ (1876). Throughout 1876-78 he travelled through Asia Minor and Armenia, later writing about his journey in ‘Horseback through Asia Minor’. www.museumoftravel.org 23 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

In 1882 he crossed the Channel to Normandy in a balloon, making him the first balloonist to cross the Channel alone. He was killed by a spear wound at the battle of Abu Klea in the Sudan on 17th January 1885. The National Portrait Gallery has a very elegant portrait of Burnaby painted by James Tissot in 1870.

Christie Agatha (w2871) Unpublished for 90 years, Agatha Christie’s extensive and evocative letters and photographs from her year- long round-the-world trip to South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and America as part of the British trade mission for the famous 1924 Empire Exhibition. In 1922 Agatha Christie set sail on a 10-month voyage around the British Empire with her husband as part of a trade mission to promote the forthcoming British Empire Exhibition. Leaving her two-year-old daughter behind with her sister, Agatha set sail at the end of January and did not return until December, but she kept up a detailed weekly correspondence with her mother, describing in detail the exotic places and people she encountered as the mission travelled through South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii and Canada. The extensive and previously unpublished letters are accompanied by hundreds of photos taken on her portable camera as well as some of the original letters, postcards, newspaper cuttings and memorabilia collected by Agatha on her trip. Edited and introduced by Agatha Christie’s grandson, Mathew Prichard, this unique travelogue reveals a new side to Agatha Christie, demonstrating how her appetite for exotic plots and locations for her books began with this eye-opening trip, which took place just after only her second novel had been published (the first leg of the tour to South Africa is very clearly the inspiration for the book she wrote immediately afterwards, The Man in the Brown Suit). The letters are full of tales of seasickness and sunburn, motor trips and surf boarding, and encounters with welcoming locals and overbearing Colonials. The Grand Tour is a book steeped in history, sure to fascinate anyone interested in the lost world of the 1920s. Coming from the pen of Britain’s biggest literary export and the world’s most widely translated author, it is also a fitting tribute to Agatha Christie and is sure to fascinate her legions of worldwide fans.

Cochran Elizabeth Jane (w1803) A questo proposito va notato che così come Bly non fu la prima donna americana a diventare reporter, ella non fu neanche la prima donna a fare il giro del mondo da sola; ma in entrambi i casi introdusse in tali ambiti delle novità che ne trasformarono le precedenti modalità e resero unica la sua esperienza. Nel caso del viaggio intorno al mondo, Bly fu la prima donna a fare una corsa contro il tempo che, combinando il tema della velocità - legato al progresso tecnico - con quello della trasgressione, risultò particolarmente attraente agli occhi del pubblico americano; inoltre la grande pubblicità data all'evento dal quotidiano che lo sponsorizzava contribuì al successo strepitoso dell'impresa.

Cooper William F. (w1767) Bill and his dogs started from Nome in October, 1908, on a four years’ globe-trotting jaunt, and has been since trekking eastward, stopping now and then to rest himself and his animal friends and to have a little fun on the way. Incidentally, Bill’s friends say he left Nome without a cent in his pocket, for one of the stipulations, if he is to win a purse of $10,000, said to have been offered by the Nome Sweepstakes Association, is that he must earn his own way around the world by Dec. 25, 1912. New York Times, 23.05.1910

William F. Cooper, known as Caribou Bill, came to Saranac Lake about 1910 and set up a small studio complex on Edgewood Road. He had traveled here from Seattle, Washington, via Washington, DC, and New York City, purportedly by dog sled, having started out to circumnavigate the globe by dog sled in fulfillment of a ten thousand dollar challenge by the Nome Sweepstakes Association. https://localwiki.org/hsl/William_F._Cooper

Costes Dieudonné (w1813) Histoire de l’aviation – 14 avril 1928. Ce samedi 14 avril 1928, tous les yeux sont rivés sur les aviateurs Dieudonné Costes et Joseph le Brix qui achèvent, ce jour, leur formidable randonnée aérienne autour du monde qui les a conduits jusqu’à Tokyo, soit un raid comptabilisant quelque 56 395 kilomètres réalisé en pas moins de 340 heures et 21 minutes de vol. C’est ainsi que le coup d’envoi du voyage était donné le lundi 10 octobre 1927 vers 9 h 30, avec une première étape de l’aérodrome du Bourget à Saint-Louis-du-Sénégal, les deux hommes étant installés aux www.museumoftravel.org 31 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org commandes d’un appareil Breguet 19 baptisé « Nungesser – Coli » équipé d’un moteur Hispano-Suiza pouvant développer une puissance de 600 chevaux.

Plus de six mois après, ils sont de retour, un retour très attendu et largement fêté par une foule très enthousiaste, qui fait une ovation aux deux aviateurs qui se posent au Bourget, vers 18 heures, escortés par seize appareils militaires et civils. S’en suit une réception dans un hangar de l’aérodrome où tous les officiels sont présents, Costes et le Brix étant accueillis par une vibrante Marseillaise jouée par le 31e régiment d’infanterie. http://www.air-journal.fr/2013-04-14-le-14-avril-1928-dans-le-ciel-costes-et-le-brix-achevent-leur-tour-du- monde-569366.html

Darling Clarence M. (w1831) Clarence M. Darling and Claude C. Murphey, age 19 and 20 respectively, left Jackson, Michigan, on May 2, 1904, to make a trip by bicycle through every state and territory within the boundary lines of the United States proper, namely, fortv-five states, four territories, and the District of Columbia'. The trip was the result of a wager. Upon the success of the tour a purse of five thousand dollars would be won by the two contestants providing that they lived up to all the terms and stipulations of the wager. The conditions were that they were to start on this long journey penniless, while on the trip they were neither to beg, work, borrow, nor steal, all the expenses of the tour to be met by the profits resulting from the sale of an aluminum card-receiver or ash-tray, a fac-simile of which is given on one of the following pages. Also the entire journey was to be made and completed within one year and six months from the date of starting, that is before November 2, 1905.

Despins Hector (w1857) An intriguing tale of contrasting worlds A Fort Garry couple are hot on the trail of two Manitoba dog mushers who travelled from the Arctic to New York City in 1938-39. Anne and Graham Gieg have been gathering clues since last May about the odyssey of Graham's great uncle, Leland Abbott, and his friend Hector Despins, and plan to write a book about the off-beat adventure. "It's the family legend," says Gieg, who recalls a visit to his great-uncle's house when he was 10 years old. "The house was full of incredible keepsakes from all the places he'd travelled." Unfortunately, much of that material has been lost. "It's been a bit of a detective story," he says. The Giegs have been gathering material from newspapers, family members and the Hudson's Bay Company archives, and by soliciting memories from people who met the mushers during their trip. The story is an intriguing tale of contrasting worlds, says Gieg, containing within it the wilderness of the North and the metropolis of New York City, the solitude of the trapper's life and life in the media spotlight. It's also the story of one last civilian adventure before the attention of the world -- and the energies of the two adventurers -- became focused on the Second World War. Abbott and Despins were trapping muskrats and guiding mineral prospectors around a settlement called Tavane, in what is now Nunavut, when they read a six-month-old magazine article about people travelling to the New York World's Fair by unusual means. As muskrat pelts weren't fetching much of a price at the time, they decided in the fall of 1938 to mush to the fair at Flushing Meadows, N.Y. The trip was full of unexpected twists and turns. They ran out of snow around Dauphin, and a farmer helped them to create a wheeled sled. Unfortunately, the powerful sled dogs were no match for the home-made contraption and it fell apart soon after. From Winnipeg on, the mushers travelled on a more durable wheeled sled made from a car chassis, following a convoluted route that took them to Chicago via Iowa. Chicago turned out to be a rough town, even with Al Capone in jail, and the duo nearly rolled into a bank robbery and shootout. That's not the only aspect of the story that seems made for Hollywood. Abbott actually met his wife-to-be during a stop in Pennsylvania. Arriving in New York in April, 1939, in time for the opening of the World's Fair, Despins and Abbott and their dogs became celebrities. "The lead dog is supposed to have been the first dog on television," says Gieg, explaining that RCA first unveiled the brand-new technology at the New York fair. "This was 20 years before Lassie." They visited hospitals, participated in a travelling show, and attended openings of a James Cagney movie called Torrid Zone and, more appropriately perhaps, a Sgt. Preston movie. They also met boxing champion Joe Louis, according to legend, taking the dog team to the boxer's training camp in New Jersey. Eventually they returned to Canada to enlist in the Armed Forces. Despins was declared medically unfit because of an earlier injury, says Gieg, but he ended up driving bulldozers during the construction of the Alaska Highway in 1942-43. Abbott joined the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1941 and became a bomber pilot. After the war, Despins became a mining engineer and was involved in developing Thompson's nickel mining industry. Abbott "fell in love with the ocean," says Gieg, and eventually opened a fish business on the coast called Eskimo Abbott's Frozen Fish. Fascinating as the journey was, the Giegs have discovered that it was by no means unique. A string of Canadian adventurers undertook long dog sled trips in the 1930s, including William Campbell, who mushed from The Pas to Chicago for the 1933 World's Fair, and King Taylor, who mushed from The Pas to Halifax and back. The Giegs expect to spend another year digging up details of the journey, and hope to wrap up their investigation by following the dog sledders' path -- in a more conventional vehicle. Anyone with information about the adventure can call the Giegs at 832-2606. Winnipeg Free Press print edition 27.03.2002

Fin dai primi giorni egli prese a scrivere regolarmente alla famiglia le proprie impressioni: le sue lettere, stese in lingua francese e certo non destinate dal suo autore alla pubblicità, portavano un carattere simpaticissimo di sincerità, di freschezza; di evidenza, che avvinse tutti coloro cui fu dato di leggerle. Il sottoscritto si fece ardito a pregare la cortese famiglia Dollfus di permettere la riproduzione nel "Corriere del Ticino" di quelle note di viaggio: non solo il permesso fu accordato, ma la gentilissima signora Laura, la mamma del giovane viaggiatore, si assunse la cura della traduzione in italiano. Così, man mano, per quasi un anno, apparvero nel "Corriere" le lettere del globe-trotter, descriventi l'Egitto, l'India, la China, il Giappone, gli Stati Uniti: in tutte egli rivela, senza pretesa alcuna e senza sforzo, la soda e vasta sua coltura scientifica ed artistica, il sagace spirito d'osservazione, e l'animo suo generoso, preoccupato delle sofferenze degli umili. Sarebbe stato un peccato lasciar disperse queste interessanti lettere sopra 166 numeri di un giornale quotidiano, del quale ben pochi usano conservare la collezione. E però esse vennero qui riunite in un volumetto, che tornerà gradito certamente ai molti amici del nostro glabe-trotter e che costituirà per lui un ricordo di un bell'episodio della sua gioventù, spesa così bene negli studii e nel lavoro. A lui pertanto uno schietto plauso, ed insieme un vivo ringraziamento per il tratto squisito, con cui, vincendo la sua grande modestia, permise agli editori di fare questa pubblicazione. Giovanni Anastasi Redattore del C. d. T.

Doussineau J. B. (w1882) Les légendes des photos varies, des fois, voyage de Marseille à Paris, d’autres fois de Vichy à Paris. Certaines aussi sont nommés « en Algérie à la recherche du chameau » alors que les mêmes photographies sont également nommés « sur le parcours » (de Marseille -ou Vichy- a Paris). Notre ami Doussineau était réellement remplit d’imagination pour mettre des légendes de sa propre inspiration, une photographie « en Algerie » étant plus « vendeur » qu’une carte metropolitaine. Est-il réellement partie de Marseille, ou alors de Vichy, nous l’ignorons… Il semblerais qu’il y ai eut aussi deux dromadaires différents d’utilisés… La fin du périple semble se situé à l’Hôpital de l’Hôtel Dieu (salle Saint-Come), ou le 29 janvier 1911, Jean Baptiste Dussineau subi l’opération de la laparotomie (la laparotomie, est un acte chirurgical consistant en l’ouverture de l’abdomen par une incision laissant le passage direct à d’autres actes chirurgicaux sur les organes abdominaux et pelviens. La laparotomie est une voie d’abord chirurgicale. Différentes incisions sont possibles. La plus courante est une ouverture allant du pubis au bord inférieur du sternum). Nous n’en savons pas plus sur ce boulanger ayant fait « son tour de France » à dos de dromadaire. Une recherche minutieuses dans les presses locales (Dieppe, , Chartres, Bezons) pourrait surement nous en dire encore plus sur ce cher boulanger. Cet article démontre en tout cas et sans aucun doute, que le malheur de ce boulanger ne vient pas d’un scandale financier lie à la Compagnie de transport ferroviaire de l’ouest, comme il est propagé, copié et recopié par plusieurs blogs et sites internet. Ce qui démontre une fois de plus la nécessite constante, lors d’affirmations historiques, de vérifier ses sources.

Dumitru Dan (w2899) In 1908, the Touring club de France announced a contest for walking around the world, with an offered prize of 100,000 francs. Dumitru Dan and his countrymen Paul Pârvu, George Negreanu and Alexandru Pascu were all students in Paris at the time, and they decided to take up the challenge, using their own money and resources. The group returned to Romania to prepare, learning additional languages, studying cartography, and doing weight training and exercises for two hours a day. They also walked 45 km per day, travelling plains, hills and mountains in all seasons. They had learned Romanian folk songs and dances and also to play the flute and accordion so that they could support their endeavor along the way by performing their native folklore. In 1910, wearing native garb and walking in sandals, the group set out on their voyage with a dog, Harap. Much of the route was covered between 1910 and 1916, but Dan's companions did not survive to see the trip's completion in 1923.

Death of fellow travelers On 17 July 1911, in India, the group were invited to the palace of the Rajah of Bombay. After sharing a meal there, the walkers went in group to purchase supplies for their journey in town. Alexandru Pascu remained to tell the Rajah about their adventures to that point. His companions returned to find Pascu and their hosts had indulged in and passed out from opium. Although their hosts felt Pascu would likely recover, he never woke. He died as a result of opium poisoning and was buried in India. George Negreanu died two years into the voyage, when the then trio were crossing a narrow mountain pass in the Nanling Mountains in China. In a brief rain during which they were forced to feel their way with canes, Negreanu - at the head of the group - fell onto rocks from a sharp precipice. Dan and Pârvu carried him to a local settlement and then to a hospital but there was no doctor available there to assist. By the time medical care was found, Negreanu was dead. Pârvu found himself unable to continue in Jacksonville, Florida.[2] Several years earlier, he had wounded his legs during the more than 2600 km walk across Alaska (coming from China and Siberian Russia) on the www.museumoftravel.org 41 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org route Kotzebue, Fairbanks, Anchorage, Yakutat, Gustavus, Skagway and Juneau, and he developed gangrene. Advised by doctors to stop, he remained in Florida with the dog Harap. Subsequently, both of his legs were amputated, but it was not sufficient to save him. In May 1915, he died. Dumitru Dan was forced to put his trip on hold due to the outbreak of World War I, but he completed his voyage by 1923. The value of the prize was substantially diminished, given inflation over 15 years and from the War. According to a 2011 Romanian news article, it had been worth about 500,000 Euros in 1908, but was only worth 40,000 at the time it was awarded. He crossed five continents over three oceans, through 76 countries and over 1,500 cities, wearing out 497 pairs of shoes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumitru_Dan

Franck Harry Alverson (w1951) Harry A. Franck's famous travels have earned for him the title of "the Prince of Vagabonds." Not for him travel in well-to-do, respectable old age, when eyes are too dim to catch the beauty of distant landscapes. So in his first year out of college, he set out with a camera as his weapon and baggage and $104.00 between him and starvation, an amount he quickly spent on photography. "As his chief objective was investigation of the masses, he worked and mingled always with common people. His itinerary mapped itself out as his earnings permitted; his wanderings carried him into strange corners of the world, far from tourist's tracks. And before he reached his home again, he had proved conclusively that a man can girdle the globe without money, weapons, or baggage. In the hope that his observations and experiences may interest fireside travelers, he offers this fascinating account of his adventurous travels in Vagabondia.

Fraser John Foster (w1953) We took this trip round the world on bicycles because we are more or less conceited, like to be talked about, and see our names in the newspapers. We were stoned by the Mohammedans because they alleged we were Christians, and we were pelted with mud in China because the Celestials were certain we were devils. We slept in wet clothes, subsisted on eggs, went hungry, and were enforced teetotalers. We had small-pox, fever, and other ailments. There were less than a dozen fights with Chinese mobs. We never shaved for five months, and only occasionally washed. Our adventures therefore were of a humdrum sort. If only one of us had been killed, or if we had ridden back into London each minus a limb, some excitement would have been caused. As it was we came home quietly.

Gallot Yves (w1960) Il avait presque un nom prédestiné : Yves Gallot (1863-1936), surnommé le Roi des marcheurs. Les Editions Payot rééditent les écrits de ce trotteur-né, qui, fusil sur l'épaule, squattait la une des journaux avec ses exploits. Couvrir 2 000 km en vingt-huit jours. Puis 2421 en tournant 62 fois autour de Paris. Se mesurer avec un cavalier et l'emporter au bout de 278,2 km… Dans cet « Art de marcher », donc, Gallot se répand en conseils utiles sur la démarche la mieux appropriée (« ne jamais conserver aucune partie du corps raidie »), l'habillement, les baumes, la diététique et la boisson. Si l'armée suivait ses principes, observait-il entre les lignes, les soldats seraient des arpètes de compète. Et comme, chez ce phénomène, tout était affaire de distance, Gallot raconte comment il fut initié à la marche par les Indiens d'Amérique du Nord. Il avait atterri là-bas pour s'éloigner le plus possible d'un père tyrannique et violent. Lequel ne réussit pas à le mettre au pas.

Gladding Effie Price (w1976) A FOREWORD THAT IS A RETROSPECT From the Pacific to the Atlantic by the Lincoln Highway, with California and the Virginias and Maryland thrown in for good measure! What a tour it has been! As we think back over its miles we recall the noble pines and the towering Sequoias of the high Sierras of California; the flashing water-falls of the Yosemite, so green as to be called Vernal, so white as to be called Bridal Veil; the orchards of the prune, the cherry, the walnut, the olive, the almond, the fig, the orange, and the lemon, tilled like a garden, watered by the hoarded and guarded streams from the everlasting hills; and the rich valleys of grain, running up to the hillsides and dotted by live oak trees. We recall miles of vineyard under perfect cultivation. We see again the blue of the Pacific and the green of the forest cedars and cypresses. High Lake Tahoe spreads before us, with its southern fringe of emerald meadows and forest pines, and its encircling guardians, lofty and snow-capped. The high, grey-green deserts of Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming stretch before us once more, and we can smell the clean, pungent sage brush. We are not lonely, for life is all about us. The California quail and blue-jay, the eagle, the ground squirrel, the gopher, the coyote, the antelope, the rattlesnake, the big ring snake, the wild horse of the plains, the jack rabbit, the meadow lark, the killdeer, the red-winged blackbird, the sparrow hawk, the thrush, the redheaded wood-pecker, the grey dove, all have been our friends and companions as we have gone along. We have seen them in their native plains and forests and from the safe vantage point of the front seat of our motor car. The lofty peaks of the Rockies have towered before us in a long, unbroken chain as we have looked at them from the alfalfa fields of Colorado. We have seen the bread and the cornbread of a nation growing on the rolling prairies of , Iowa, and Illinois. We have crossed the green, pastoral stretches of Indiana and Ohio and Pennsylvania. The red roads of Virginia, winding among her laden orchards of apples and peaches and pears and her lush forests of oak and pine; the yellow roads of Maryland, passing through her fertile fields and winding in and out among the thousand water ways of her coast line, all come before us. These are precious possessions of experience and memory, the choice, intimate knowledge to which the motorist alone can attain. The Friends of the Open Road are ours; the homesteader in his white canopied prairie schooner, the cattleman on his pony, the passing fellow motorist, the ranchman at his farmhouse door, the country www.museumoftravel.org 52 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org inn-keeper hospitably speeding us on our way. We have a new conception of our great country; her vastness, her varied scenery, her prosperity, her happiness, her boundless resources, her immense possibilities, her kindness and hopefulness. We are bound to her by a thousand new ties of acquaintance, of association, and of pride. The Lincoln Highway is already what it is intended to be, a golden road of pleasure and usefulness, fitly dedicated, and destined to inspire a great patriotism and to honour a great patriot. October, 1914.

Glazier Willard (w1977) Willard Glazier was the ultimate ironman and a peerless survivor. He lived by his sword and by his pen. The quintessential self-made man grew up poor on a farm in St. Lawrence County and dropped out of school to make a living as a trapper in the wilds of the North Country. He saved enough to buy a horse and at 18 rode to Albany. He enrolled in 1859 at the State Normal School (now the University at Albany), with the intent of becoming a . He ran out of money after a semester and had to leave, but he picked up temporary teaching jobs in rural Rensselaer County while periodically returning to college when he had enough cash. In 1861, Glazier, most of his college classmates and two instructors enlisted in the Union Army. Since he had a horse, he was assigned to cavalry and the 2nd Regiment of New York. He was taken prisoner Oct. 18, 1863, in a Civil War battle at Buckland Mills, Va. He escaped from confinement in Columbia, S.C,. was recaptured near Springfield, Ga., escaped again and with the help of several African-Americans, made his way safely back home to Albany. But his term of service had expired and he re-entered the Union Army as 1st lieutenant with the 26th New York Cavalry. He served with valor until the end of the war and was promoted to brevet general for “meritorious service.” He married Harriet Ayers of Cincinnati in 1868, an understanding wife who supported Glazier’s unquenchable wanderlust. He transformed himself into an explorer and adventure travel writer. He rode a horse from to San Francisco, beginning in 1875 and finishing a year later. He was captured by Native Americans in the Wyoming territory and escaped, which helped sell copies of his book, “Ocean to Ocean on Horseback.” In 1881, he set out to travel the entire 2,300-mile length of the Mississippi River by canoe. His adventures yielded two books and the discovery of what he considered the true source of the Mississippi. Although it was disputed as the source, Lake Glazier was named in his honor. In addition, he organized a regiment for the Spanish-American War, had a river named for him after exploring uncharted territory on the Labrador peninsula, wrote several best-selling books and lectured around the U.S. Glazier traveled a lot of hard miles and died at age 64 in 1905. His final resting place is among “Millionaires’ Row,” in Section 29, Lot 26, and his large granite marker is strikingly visual: crossed swords, a bugle, canteen, a waving American flag and a long list of accomplishments that kept a stone carver’s chisel ringing for days. http://www.timesunion.com/albanyrural/glazier/

Grandin Georges (w2898) Grandin n'est pas un marcheur vulgaire, chacun sait ça. Dire de lui qu'il est un marcheur scientifique ne serait point exagérer. Grandin, en effet, est un émule actif - oh! très actif! - d'Élisée Reclus. Outre ses aptitudes peu communes à la marche, Grandin professe, en effet, un goût très vif pour le dessin géographique, et il excelle à dresser lui-même les cartes de ses très intéressants voyages. A la veille de l'audacieuse expédition qu'il prépare; l'histoire de ses deux premiers grands voyages vaut d'être, aujourd'hui, rapidement retracée. Il y a deux ans, Grandin partait à pied de Paris et se rendait à Saint-Pétersbourg. Il traversa toute l'Allemagne, où il n'eut pas toujours lieu de se féliciter de l'accueil qu'on lui ménageait. En revanche, il fut cordialement reçu en Russie : à Valkomir, des officiers lui firent fête. De Saint-Pétersbourg, il repartit, toujours pédestrement. Une ovation lui fut ménagée à Moscou. On l'applaudit à Varsovie. Finalement, il rentra en France, après avoir passé par Vienne et Zurich. Grandin, Georges. 1895. À pied! le tour de la terre: impressions et notes de voyages. Paris: Charles. Nell'edizione del 25 febbraio 1926 il quotidiano L'Echo d'Alger riporta una sintesi della relazione di M. Léveque tenuta il 14 gennaio presso la Société de géographie d'Alger et de l'Afrique du Nord; il relatore cita alcune iniziative di Grandin, come pure la sua recente dipartita: www.museumoftravel.org 54 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

"C'est au moment où il caressait le projet de se rendre de Paris à Jérusalem que sa santé commença à chanceler; la mort le surprit en mars 1920, il a été inhumé dans le caveau de famille." L'Echo d'Alger : journal républicain du matin, 25.01.1926 L'Almanacco Italiano del 1904 riporta una fine decisamente più romanzata: "Il francese Grandin andò col suo fido cane da Parigi a Pietroburgo, percorrendo 6000 km. Poscia recatosi in Africa, veniva ucciso da alcuni predoni della tribù del Rajo-Galla. Venne sepolto a Gibuti." Almanacco Italiano, Piccola enciclopedia popolare della vita pratica. Firenze, 1904. http://www.adamoli.org/

La Mésaventure du Globe-trotter Qui ne connaît Grandin, le vigoureux globe-trotter qui, plusieurs fois, accomplit le tour du monde! Hier, Grandin débarquait à Paris, venant de Londres, et, de suite, il visita, sac au dos, les tavernes qui lui sont familières. Et, avec un grand luxe de détails, il narra, pour l’ébahissement de ses auditeurs, la réception cordiale que lui fit Guillaume II et l’empressement que mit le négus Ménélik à lui faire visiter le harem de la Cour d’Ethiopie. Grandin ne tarissait pas sur la beauté et sur les charmes des ‘désenchantées’ de là- bas, et son récit n’allait point, parfois, sans quelque poésie. Cependant, les consommations qu’on lui offrit eurent raison de son endurance. Vers une heure du matin, on le mit en voiture pour lui permettre de regagner plus promptement son domicile, mais il se fit conduire aux Halles. Au moment de régler le cocher, il constata le vide de son gousset, et c’est en vain qu’il parlementa. Il fallut aller au poste de la rue des Prouvaires et, là encore, Grandin, très en verve, conta par le menu les prouesses innombrables dont s’illustre son passé. Après de longs discours, M. Bureau, paternel et conciliant, fit accompagner le globe-trotter à la gare Saint-Lazare, d’où il put s’embarquer, muni d’un viatique, pour la petite ville des Mureaux, où il demeure, 15, rue de La Haye. Le Journal, 23.02.1908

Le globe-trotter Grandin est fou Georges Grandin, le globe-trotter, qui traversa notre ville il y a un mois, vient de devenir fou, à Saint- Germain-en-Laye, où ses parents avaient tenu un commerce et ou il avait dirigé un journal et occupé les fonctions de conseiller municipal. L'intrépide marcheur s'était rendu à Saint-Germain hier matin, afin de retrouver d'anciens amis et de leur raconter quelques-unes de ses savoureuses aventures. Mais, pris d'une crise de démence au moment où il descendait du train, le globe-trotter se livra à des gestes désordonnés et se mit à pousser des cris inarticulés. La scène rassembla vite une foule de badauds amusés. Conduit au commissariat, Grandin devint furieux. Sur l'avis d'un médecin, il fut d'urgence dirigé dans une maison de santé de Paris. Dimanche dernier, le commissaire de police du quartier des Halles avait fait rapatrier aux Mureaux le globe-trotter, qui se trouvait sans ressources. L'Ouest-Éclair (Rennes), 28.02.1908

Hafner Eugen (w2012) È stato ieri in visita alla nostra redazione, un giovane bavarese, il signor Negue Renfah, giornalista, che sta effettuando il giro del mondo in bicicletta. Partito da Monaco il 1 dello scorso giugno il signor Renfah ha attraversato la Germania del Nord, la Polonia e la Svizzera percorrendo 7'400 km; si è diretto verso l'Italia stamane, intenzionato di visitare poi la Turchia e la Palestina. Il giornalista si guadagna la vita scrivendo articoli per i principali giornali della Germania. All'audace giovane collega, felicitazioni ed auguri di completa riuscita del suo grande raid. Corriere del Ticino, 12.10.1927

Le tour du monde en bicyclette. Nous avons eu, jeudi soir, au bureau du "Confédéré" la brève visite d'un jeune confrère ambulant en train de faire le tour du monde en bicyclette. Il venait jeudi de Chamonix d'où il avait traversé la Forclaz sur sa curieuse bécane dont les six couleurs attirent les regards. Trois valises sont assujetties sur le vélo du voyageur qui parcourt les différents pays sous le pseudonyme de Negue Renfah (Eugen Hafner). Il a 25 ans, connaît six langues et est de nationalité allemande. Il est parti de Munich le 1er juin 1927 et a déjà parcouru l'Allemagne jusqu'à la frontière polonaise, puis la France. Il compte terminer sa balade mondiale à la fin de l'année 1928. Il a fait jusqu'ici 7260 kilomètres et nous a montré des coupures de journaux attestant son passage à Genève et à Annemasse, ainsi que son carnet de route rempli d'attestations de son passage dans de nombreuses et importantes localités. Nous avons souhaité bon voyage à M. Renfah qui a enfourché de nouveau sa bicyclette pour traverser tout le Valais, franchir la Furka et, par la route du Gothard, descendre en Italie. En cours de route, le voyageur s'arrête dans les villes les plus intéressantes, écrit des articles et réunit des notes et impressions de voyage à publier plus tard. Nous autres scribes sédentaires aspirerions aussi à nous rafraîchir un peu les idées au contact du vaste monde dont nous entretenons journellement nos lecteurs sans avoir souvent l'occasion de le parcourir.

Harbo George (w2025) True Log of the Fox On June 6th, 1896 George Harbo and Frank Samuelsen departed from New York's Battery in an 18 foot rowboat destination Europe. They took the northern route skirting in and out of the shipping lanes. The same shipping passages that the Titanic would later use and the same areas fished by Gloucester and Nova Scotia fisherman. They encountered a pod of whales, gale force winds and high following seas. At one point they were broadsided by a large wave and capsized. They were prepared, and the 'hand rails' which were placed on the keel, by their design, helped them right the small open boat in minutes. Rowing, each man put in a total of 18 hours a day. They never could both sleep because their small vessel would stray off course without constant rowing. They often averaged 50 - 60 miles per day on their 3,000 mile voyage. On August 1st they arrived at the Sicily Islands which is the British Isles most western point in a record time of 55 days. Since that achievement many rowers have attempted to best this record, but as of this date 2 Men in an open rowboat, without sail, motor, cover or rudder, have yet to beat this time or match the achievement with corresponding equipment. http://www.bronzesea.org/Pages/TrueLogoftheFox.aspx

Harmon Patrick (w2028) Walking backward across continent on a wager Patrick Harmon, who is attempting on a wager to walk across the continent, from Seattle to New York City, backward, arrived in Ogden late yesterday afternoon, with his traveling companion, W. H. Botager. The pedestrians are residents of Seattle, Mr. Harmon being a prominent business man of that city and a well known athlete. His venture is the result of a chance remark in a Seattle club, in which a friend complimented a man for walking into the city from a suburban town. Hearing the compliment given, Harmon declared that he could not only duplicate the feat, but could do it walking backward. Further discussion led to the undertaking of his trans-continental hike backward, on a $25,000 wager, the time allotted the pedestrian being 260 days. Botager received $4 a day for going along and seeing that Harmon plays fair. The couple have been 49 days making the trip from the Pacific coast to Ogden and is ahead of schedule. Harmon walks with a looking glass attached to himself at an angle that permits of his seeing the road behind him. The Ogden standard, 07.10.1915

Huld Palle (w2347) A Boy Scout Around the World (Danish: Jorden Rundt i 44 dage, literally: Around the World in 44 Days) is a travel description published in October 1928 and written by Danish Boy Scout and later actor Palle Huld at the age of 15 following his travel around the world in spring 1928. His trip was www.museumoftravel.org 64 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org sponsored by a Danish newspaper and made on the occasion of the 100 birthday of Jules Verne a French author of adventure and science fiction. Palle Huld was chosen after having answered to an ad in the newspaper; applicants had to be boys, 15 years old, able to manage in English and German and of good health. Like the characters in Jules Verne’s novel Around the World in 80 days. he was only allowed to travel by land and sea, not by air. The travel (on first class) went from Denmark to Great Britain, across the Atlantic Ocean to Canada. From the American west coast he continued to Japan, China, , Poland, Germany and back to Denmark. He had to travel alone but was helped along the way by reporters of the newspaper, members of Danish embassies and local Boy Scouts. The travel was followed by not only Danish newspapers but newspapers around the world and at his return to Copenhagen he was met by a crowd of 20,000 people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Boy_Scout_Around_the_World

Krohn John Albert (w2153) Will make 9,000 miles Colonial Jack on His Way from Portland, Me, to Portland, Ore Boston - J. A. Krohan of Glen Grove, Minn, who calls himself "Colonial Jack" is on his way from Portland, Me, to Portland Ore and proposes to keep as well as he can along the border line of the republic. He is off on a 9,000 mile walk, his longest tramp although he has made many very long trips afoot and likes that form of exercise and amusement very much. He likes the old colonial dress, or, rather, that of the revolutionary period. He objects to pantaloons, and thinks that he can walk much easier in knee breeches. He wears the old-time cocked hat and wheels a contrivance of his own before him, box shaped, like a pyramid, mounted on a single bicycle wheel. He took with him a formal letter from Mayor Leighton to the mayor of Portland, Ore, and promised to bring back a reply in 400 days. S. B.

Kron Karl (w2156) This is a book of American roads, for men who travel on the bicycle. Its ideal is that of a gazetteer, a dictionary, a cyclopaedia, a statistical guide, a thesaurus of facts. The elaborateness of its indexing shows that it is designed less for reading than for reference, — less for amusement than for instruction, — and debars any one from objecting to the multiplicity of its details. No need exists for a weary wading through the mass of these by any seeker for special knowledge. The information which he wants can be found at once, if contained in the book at all ; and the pages which do not interest him can be left severely alone.

Langhorne Clemens Samuel (w2864) Mark Twain, pseudonimo di Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Florida, 30 novembre 1835 – Redding, 21 aprile 1910), è stato uno scrittore, umorista, aforista e docente statunitense. Utilizzò anche altri pseudonimi, come "Sieur Louis de Conte", ad esempio per firmare la biografia di Giovanna d'Arco. È considerato una tra le maggiori celebrità statunitensi del suo tempo: William Faulkner scrisse che fu il "primo vero scrittore americano". Dati i trascorsi da pilota dei battelli a vapore sul Mississippi, fatto di cui era orgoglioso, è ritenuto che lo pseudonimo che si attribuì, "Mark Twain" derivi dal grido in uso nello slang della marineria fluviale degli Stati Uniti per segnalare la profondità delle acque: by the mark, twain, ovvero: dal segno, due (sottinteso tese). Tale grido indica una profondità di sicurezza (appunto due tese, circa 3,7 metri). Twain cominciò la sua carriera di scrittore di racconti umoristici, e finì per divenire, dopo alcune travagliate vicende personali, un severo e irriverente cronista delle vanità, sferzante contro ogni ipocrisia e crudeltà umana, nonché critico delle religioni. A metà carriera, con Huckleberry Finn, combinò fine umorismo, solida narrativa e critica sociale, ad un livello senza rivali nel mondo della letteratura americana. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Twain

Le Brix Joseph (w2885) Histoire de l’aviation – 14 avril 1928. Ce samedi 14 avril 1928, tous les yeux sont rivés sur les aviateurs Dieudonné Costes et Joseph le Brix qui achèvent, ce jour, leur formidable randonnée aérienne autour du monde qui les a conduits jusqu’à Tokyo, soit un raid comptabilisant quelque 56 395 kilomètres réalisé en pas moins de 340 heures et 21 minutes de vol.

C’est ainsi que le coup d’envoi du voyage était donné le lundi 10 octobre 1927 vers 9 h 30, avec une première étape de l’aérodrome du Bourget à Saint-Louis-du-Sénégal, les deux hommes étant installés aux commandes d’un appareil Breguet 19 baptisé « Nungesser – Coli » équipé d’un moteur Hispano- Suiza pouvant développer une puissance de 600 chevaux.

Plus de six mois après, ils sont de retour, un retour très attendu et largement fêté par une foule très enthousiaste, qui fait une ovation aux deux aviateurs qui se posent au Bourget, vers 18 heures, escortés par seize appareils militaires et civils. S’en suit une réception dans un hangar de l’aérodrome où tous les officiels sont présents, Costes et le Brix étant accueillis par une vibrante Marseillaise jouée par le 31e régiment d’infanterie. http://www.air-journal.fr/2013-04-14-le-14-avril-1928-dans-le-ciel-costes-et-le-brix-achevent-leur-tour-du- monde-569366.html

Le Long Margaret Valentine (w2177) In spite of the opposition of every friend and relative who was on hand to register a protest (and those at a distance objected by mail) I proceeded with my preparations for riding awheel from Chicago to San Francisco. They were few and simple, consisting mainly of a suitable skirt, and in having heavy soles put on my shoes. A change of underwear, a few toilet articles, and a clean “hanky” I strapped on my handle-bars, and a pistol, which I borrowed, I put in my tool-bag, where it would be hard to get at it in case of need. And so one morning in May I started midst a chorus of prophecies of broken limbs, starvation, death from thirst, abduction by cowboys, and scalping by Indians. Fonte: Outing, 31, 1898

Leland Lilian (w2182) The successful accomplishment of a journey of nearly sixty thousand miles, made by a young woman, traveling alone, is calculated to excite wonder and admiration ; and when the record of that journey is replete with original thought, the emanations of a bright intellect, it possesses a special interest. Lilian Leland, at the age of twenty-five, without premeditation or preparation, started upon a voyage which, unexpectedly, became the commencement of a journey which carried her around the world, to many lands and on many seas, from Cape Horn to the North Cape and from the Rocky Mountains to the Himalayas ; but little less than sixty thousand miles in distance and covering a period of about two years. She traveled without escort or protection except chance acquaintances met on the way. No woman has ever traveled so far alone, with the single exception of Ida Pfeiffer who went twice around the world. Next to Lilian Leland is Isabella Bird, whose admirable books have earned for her a well deserved fame. Leland L., Traveling alone.

Loher George T. (w2200) Alias-Pseudonimo-Pseudonyme: - Inscriptions-Iscrizioni-Inscriptions: The ACME cyclist back George Loher, who went from Oakland to New York on his wheel. Much interest was shown to-day at the Acme Club over the tour of George Loher, who arrived home yesterday from New York, to which city he went on his wheel. Loher's trip was one of the most arduous and difficult ever undertaken. Instead of riding from ocean to ocean by the most direct and accessible route, as all previous cross-continent riders have done —with the exception of Tom Winder— Mr.Loher preferred to take his way over some of the wildest and roughest portions of the country. He left Oakland on August 11 in company with a friend named Cornell, but his companion turned about at Sacramento and came home. Loher skirted the Pacific Coast to Portland, and then made his way East through Idaho, Montana, the Dakotas and Minnesota, to Chicago, from which point he followed the beaten track of travel to New York, where he arrived by October 30. The trip was not taken with any view of crossing the continent on record time, but nevertheless Loher's time over the most difficultportion of the route— that west of the Mississippi River —is better than Winder's for practically the same ground. The Acme man was eighty days in going; from ocean to ocean, but he made frequent stops along the way, so that only sixty-two days were consumed in actual riding, notwithstanding his roundabout line of travel. His way lay over some of the most difficult portions of the Rocky Mountain region, and no less than five mountain chains had to be crossed. Mr. Loher thinks he made a mistake in choosing to cross by the northern route, and recommends bicyclists to take another route. There are long stretches of mountain- climbing through the Spokane country and the Muiler Pass into Helena, Mont., but the scenery is some recompense for the labor. The wind-swept prairies of Dakota, through miles of sand, was not pleasant for cycling. After crossing the Dakota plains Loher entered a stretch of country in which everybody spoke Swedish and no one spoke a word of English. The cyclist traveled over 4350 miles of roads, trails and deserts, and has no intention of repeating the journey.

Lowe F. H. (w2205) We took this trip round the world on bicycles because we are more or less conceited, like to be talked about, and see our names in the newspapers. We were stoned by the Mohammedans because they alleged we were Christians, and we were pelted with mud in China because the Celestials were certain we were devils.

We slept in wet clothes, subsisted on eggs, went hungry, and were enforced teetotalers. We had small-pox, fever, and other ailments. There were less than a dozen fights with Chinese mobs. We never shaved for five months, and only occasionally washed. Our adventures therefore were of a humdrum sort. If only one of us had been killed, or if we had ridden back into London each minus a limb, some excitement would have been caused. As it was we came home quietly.

Massey Beatrice (w2252) After reading "By Motor to the Golden Gate" by Emily Post, published in 1916, I was fired by a desire to make a similar tour. This desire grew into a firm determination the more I re-read her charming book. Then the United States went into the war, and self-respecting citizens were not spending months amusing themselves; so all thought of the trip was put aside until the spring of this year (1919). Then the^motor fever" came on again, and refused to yield to any sedatives of advice or obstacles. After talking and planning for three years, we actually decided to go in ten minutes — and in ten days we were off. https://archive.org/details/itmighthavebeenw00mass

Meeker Ezra (w2865) Ezra Manning Meeker (Huntsville, 29 dicembre 1830 – Frye Hotel, 3 dicembre 1928) è stato un esploratore statunitense. Figlio di Jacob Meeker (1804-1869) e di Phoebe Baker (1801-1854), nacque nella contea di Butler, in Ohio. Nel 1839 la famiglia Meeker si trasferì a Indianapolis, ove rimediò un lavoro[chi?] da apprendista tipografo all'Indianapolis Journal. In questa veste conobbe il celebre pastore Henry Ward Beecher, che accettò di sovvenzionare il giornale su richiesta del piccolo Meeker. Nel 1851 sposò Eliza Jane Sumner, insieme alla quale decise di raggiungere la Oregon Trail, la celebre pista per emigranti, per fare fortuna. Nel 1852 la famigliola raggiunse Kalama, lungo il fiume Columbia. Nel 1853 Ezra ed Oliver Meeker, suo fratello, raggiunsero l'isola di McNeil e vi fondarono un insediamento. Nel 1855 Ezra, Oliver e Jacob Meeker fondarono una società di spedizioni commerciali fluviali, ma Oliver perse la vita in una di queste, cosicché la società fu destinata a fallire. Avendo perso la residenza sull'isola, Meeker si trasferì nella Puyallup Valley e vi occupò un lotto di terreno demaniale per la sopravvivenza. Presto decise di coltivare luppolo insieme al padre Jacob per produrre alcolici, attività che riportò in attivo i conti di famiglia. Negli anni '80 del XIX secolo Meeker raggiunse addirittura l'Inghilterra per smerciare la sua bevanda alcolica e fu ricevuto dalla regina Vittoria del Regno Unito. Nel frattempo partecipò alla fondazione della cittadina di Puyallup e ne fu sindaco dall'agosto del 1890 al gennaio del 1891. Col tempo le tecniche di coltivazione di Meeker divennero obsolete e Meeker fu costretto a ripercorrere a ritroso l'Oregon Trail (1905) con un carro trainato da buoi nel tentativo di guadagnare notorietà e rivalorizzare l'antica pista dei pionieri. L'impresa riuscì alla perfezione e Meeker fu incontrato da Theodore Roosevelt, che se ne congratulò con lui. Roosevelt inoltre propose al Congresso di raccogliere fondi per aiutare il vecchio pioniere e rivalorizzare la pista. L'esploratore, ormai molto vecchio, si appassionò all'aeronautica e nel 1924 arrivò a percorrere la Oregon Trail in aeroplano (precedentemente aveva utilizzato un treno e un'automobile). Nel 1909 Eliza Jane Sumner morì e Meeker vendette le sue vaste proprietà. Nel 1922 fondò la Old www.museumoftravel.org 90 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

Oregon Trail Association e nel 1926 gli fu dedicato un grosso monumento, simbolo dell'età d'oro dei pionieri. Morì a 97 anni il 9 dicembre 1928, dopo aver da poco avviato una collaborazione con Henry Ford in qualità di testimonial. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ezra_Meeker

Muir John (w2853) JOHN MUIR, Earth-planet, Universe. These words are written on the inside cover of the notebook from which the contents of this volume have been taken. They reflect the mood in which the late author and explorer undertook his thousand-mile walk to the Gulf of Mexico a half-century ago. No less does this refreshingly cosmopolitan address, which might have startled any finder of the book, reveal the temper and the comprehensiveness of Mr. Muir s mind. He never was and never could be a parochial student of nature. Even at the early age of twenty-nine his eager interest in every aspect of the natural world had made him a citizen of the universe. While this was by far the longest botanical excursion which Mr. Muir made in his earlier years, it was by no means the only one. He had botanized around the Great Lakes, in Ontario, and through parts of Wisconsin, Indiana, and Illinois. On these expeditions he had disciplined himself to endure hardship, for his notebooks disclose the fact that he often went hungry and slept in the woods, or on the open prairies, with no cover except the clothes he wore. "Oftentimes," he writes in some unpublished biographical notes, "I had to sleep out with out blankets, www.museumoftravel.org 93 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org and also without supper or break fast. But usually I had no great difficulty in finding a loaf of bread in the widely scattered clearings of the farmers. With one of these big backwoods loaves I was able to wander many a long, wild mile, free as the winds in the glorious forests and bogs, gathering plants and feeding on God s abounding, inexhaustible spiritual beauty bread. Only once in my long Canada wanderings was the deep peace of the wilderness savagely broken. It happened in the maple woods about midnight, when I was cold and my fire was low. I was awakened by the awfully dismal howling of the wolves, and got up in haste to replenish the fire." It was not, therefore, a new species of adventure upon which Mr. Muir embarked when he started on his Southern foot-tour. It was only a new response to the lure of those favorite studies which he had already pursued over uncounted miles of virgin Western forests and prairies. Indeed, had it not been for the accidental injury to his right eye in the month of March, 1867, he probably would have started somewhat earlier than he did. In a letter written to Indianapolis friends on the day after the accident, he refers mournfully to the interrup tion of a long-cherished plan. "For weeks," he writes, "I have daily consulted maps in locating a route through the Southern States, the West Indies, South America, and Europe a botanical journey studied for years. And so my mind has long been in a glow with visions of the glories of a tropical flora; but, alas, I am half blind. My right eye, trained to minute analysis, is lost and I have scarce heart to open the other. Had this journey been accomplished, the stock of varied beauty acquired would have made me willing to shrink into any corner of the world, however obscure and however remote." The injury to his eye proved to be less serious than he had at first supposed. In June he was writing to a friend: "I have been reading and botanizing for some weeks, and find that for such work I am not very much disabled. I leave this city [Indianapolis] for home to-morrow, accompanied by Merrill Moores, a little friend of mine. We will go to Decatur, Illinois, thence northward through the wide prairies, botanizing a few weeks by the way.... I hope to go South towards the end of the summer, and as this will be a journey that I know very little about, I hope to profit by your counsel before setting out." In an account written after the excursion he says: "I was eager to see Illinois prairies on my way home, so we went to Decatur, near the center of the State, thence north [to Portage] by Rockford and Janesville. I botanized one week on the prairie about seven miles south-west of Pecatonica.... To me all plants are more precious than before. My poor eye is not better, nor worse. A cloud is over it, but ingazing over the widest landscapes, I am not always sensible of its presence." By the end of August Mr. Muir was back again in Indianapolis. He had found it convenient to spend a "botanical week" among his University friends in Madison. So keen was his interest in plants at this time that an interval of five hours spent in Chicago was promptly turned to account in a search for them. "I did not find many plants in her tumultuous streets," he complains; "only a few grassy plants of wheat, and two or three species of weeds, amaranth, purslane, carpet-weed, etc., the weeds, I suppose, for man to walk upon, the wheat to feed him. I saw some green algae, but no mosses. Some of the latter I expected to see on wet walls, and in seams on the pavements. But I suppose that the manufacturers smoke and the terrible noise are too great for the hardiest of them. I wish I knew where I was going. Doomed to be "carried of the spirit into the wilderness/ I suppose. I wish I could be more moderate in my desires, but I cannot, and so there is no rest." The letter noted above was written only two days before he started on his long walk to Florida. If the concluding sentences still reflect indecision, they also convey a hint of the overmastering impulse under which he was acting. The opening sentences of his journal, afterwards crossed out, witness to this sense of inward compulsion which he felt." Few bodies," he wrote, "are inhabited by so satisfied a soul that they are allowed exemption from extraordinary exertion through a whole life." After reciting illustrations of nature s periodicity, of the ebbs and flows of tides, and the pulsation of other forces, visible and invisible, he observes that " so also there are tides not only in the affairs of men, but in the primal thing of life it self. In some persons the impulse, being slight, is easily obeyed or overcome. But in others it is constant and cumulative in action until its power is sufficient to overmaster all impediments, and to accomplish the full measure of its demands. For many a year I have been impelled toward the Lord s tropic gardens of the South. Many influences have tended to blunt or bury this constant longing, but it has out lived and overpowered them all." Muir s love of nature was so largely a part of his religion that he naturally chose Biblical phraseology when he sought a vehicle for his feelings. No prophet of old could have taken his call more seriously, or have entered upon his mission more freyently. During the long days of his confinement in a dark www.museumoftravel.org 94 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org room he had opportunity for much reflection. He concluded that life was too brief and uncertain, and time too precious, to waste upon belts and saws ; that while he was pottering in a wagon factory, God was making a world ; and he determined that, if his eyesight was spared, he would devote the remainder of his life to a study of the process. Thus the previous bent of his habits and studies, and the sobering thoughts induced by one of the bitterest experiences of his life, combined to send him on the long journey recorded in these pages. Some autobiographical notes found among his papers furnish interesting additional details about the period between his release from the dark room and his departure for the South. "As soon as I got out into heaven s light," he says, "I started on another long excursion, making haste with all my heart to store my mind with the Lord s beauty, and thus be ready for any fate, light or dark. And it was from this time that my long, continuous wanderings may be said to have fairly commenced. I bade adieu to mechanical inventions, determined to devote the rest of my life to the study of the inventions of God. I first went home to Wisconsin, botanizing by the way, to take leave of my father and mother, brothers and sisters, all of whom were still living near Portage. I also visited the neighbors I had known as a boy, renewed my acquaintance with them after an absence of several years, and bade each a formal good-bye. When they asked where I was going I said, Oh! I don t know just anywhere in the wilderness, southward. I have already had glorious glimpses of the Wisconsin, Iowa, Michigan, Indiana, and Canada wildernesses; now I propose to go South and see something of the vegetation of the warm end of the country, and if possible to wander far enough into South America to see tropical vegetation in all its palmy glory. "The neighbors wished me well, advised me to be careful of my health, and reminded me that the swamps in the South were full of malaria. I stopped overnight at the home of an old Scotch lady who had long been my friend and was now particularly motherly in good wishes and advice. I told her that as I was sauntering along the road, just as the sun was going down, I heard a darling speckled-breast sparrow singing, The day s done, the day s done/ Weel, John, my dear laddie, she replied, your day will never be done. There is no end to the kind of studies you like so well, but there s an end to mortals strength of body and mind, to all that mortals can accomplish.You are sure to go on and on, but I want you to remember the fate of Hugh Miller. She was one of the finest examples I ever knew of a kind, generous, great-hearted Scotchwoman." The formal leave-taking from family and neighbors indicates his belief that he was parting from home and friends for a long time. On Sunday, the ist of September, 1867, Mr. Muir said good-bye also to his Indianapolis friends, and went by rail to Jeffersonville, where he spent the night. The next morning he crossed the river, walked through Louisville, and struck southward through the State of Kentucky. A letter written a week later "among the hills of Bear Creek, seven miles southeast of Burkesville, Kentucky," shows that he had covered about twenty-five miles a day. "I walked from Louisville," he says, "a distance of one hundred and seventy miles, and my feet are sore. But, oh! I am paid for all my toil a thousand times over. I am in the woods on a hilltop with my back against a moss-clad log. I wish you could see my last evening s bedroom. The sun has been among the tree-tops for more than an hour; the dew is nearly all taken back, and the shade in these hill basins is creeping away into the unbroken strongholds of the grand old forests. "I have enjoyed the trees and scenery of Kentucky exceedingly. How shall I ever tell of the miles and miles of beauty that have been flowing into me in such measure ? These lofty curving ranks of lobing, swelling hills, these concealed valleys of fathomless verdure, and these lordly trees with the nursing sunlight glancing in their leaves upon the outlines of the magnificent masses of shade embosomed among their wide branches these are cut into my memory to go with me forever. "I was a few miles south of Louisville when I planned my journey. I spread out my map under a tree and made up my mind to go through Kentucky, Tennessee, and Georgia to Florida, thence to Cuba, thence to some part of South America; but it will be only a hasty walk. I am thankful, however, for so much. My route will be through Kingston and Madisonville, Tennessee, and through Blairsville and Gainesville, Georgia. Please write me at Gainesville. I am terribly letter-hungry. I hardly dare to think of home and friends." In editing the journal I have endeavored, by use of all the available evidence, to trail Mr. Muir as closely as possible on maps of the sixties as well as on the most recent state and topographical maps. The one used by him has not been found, and probably is no longer in exist ence. Only about twenty- two towns and cities are mentioned in his journal. This constitutes a very small number when one considers the distance he covered. Evidently he was so absorbed in the plant life of the region www.museumoftravel.org 95 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org traversed that he paid no heed to towns, and perhaps avoided them wherever possible. The sickness which overtook him in Florida was probably of a malarial kind, although he describes it under different names. It was, no doubt, a misfortune in itself, and a severe test for his vigorous constitution. But it was also a blessing in disguise, inasmuch as it prevented him from carrying out his foolhardy plan of penetrating the tropical jungles of South America along the Andes to a tributary of the Amazon, and then floating down the river on a raft to the Atlantic. As readers of the jour nal will perceive, he clung to this intention even during his convalescence at Cedar Keys and in Cuba. In a letter dated the 8th of November he describes himself as "just creeping about getting plants and strength after my fever." Then he asks his correspondent to direct let ters to New Orleans, Louisiana. " I shall have to go there," he writes, "for a boat to South America. I do not yet know to which point in South America I had better go." His hope to find there a boat for South America explains an otherwise mystifying letter in which he requested his brother David to send him a certain sum of money by American Express order to New Orleans. As a matter of fact he did not go into Louisiana at all, either because he learned that no south-bound ship was available at the mouth of the Mississippi, or because the unexpected appearance of the Island Belle in the harbor of Cedar Keys caused him to change his plans. In later years Mr. Muir himself strongly disparaged the wisdom of his plans with respect to South America, as may be seen in the chapter that deals with his Cuban sojourn. The judgment there expressed was lead-penciled into his journal during a reading of it long after wards. Nevertheless the Andes and the South American forests continued to fascinate his imagination, as his letters show, for many years after he came to California. When the long deferred journey to South America was finally made in 1911, forty-four years after the first attempt, he whimsically spoke of it as the fulfillment of those youthful dreams that moved him to undertake his thousand-mile walk to the Gulf. Mr. Muir always recalled with gratitude the Florida friends who nursed him through his long and serious illness. In 1898, while traveling through the South on a forest-inspection tour with his friend Charles Sprague Sargent, he took occasion to revisit the scenes of his early adventures. It may be of interest to quote some sentences from letters written at that time to his wife and to his sister Sarah. "I have been down the east side of the Florida peninsula along the Indian River," he writes, "through the palm and pine forests to Miami, and thence to Key West and the southmost keys stretching out towards Cuba. Returning, I crossed over to the west coast by Palatka to Cedar Keys, on my old track made thirty-one years ago, in search of the Hodgsons who nursed me through my long attack of fever. Mr. Hodgson died long ago, also the eldest son, with whom I used to go boating among the keys while slowly convalescing." He then tells how he found Mrs. Hodgson and the rest of the family at Archer. They had long thought him dead and were naturally very much surprised to see him. Mrs. Hodgson was in her garden and he recognized her, though the years had altered her appearance. Let us give his own account of the meeting: "I asked her if she knew me. No, I don t/ she said; tell me your name. Muir, I replied. John Muir? My California John Muir? she almost screamed. I said, Yes, John Muir; and you know I promised to return and visit you in about twenty-five years, and though I am a little late six or seven years I ve done the best I could/ The eldest boy and girl remembered the stories I told them, and when they read about the Muir Glacier they felt sure it must have been named for me. I stopped at Archer about four hours, and the way we talked over old times you may imagine." From Savannah, on the same trip, he wrote: "Here is where I spent a hungry, weary, yet happy week camping in Bonaventure graveyard thirty-one years ago. Many changes, I am told, have been made in its graves and avenues of late, and how many in my life!" In perusing this journal the reader will miss the literary finish which Mr. Muir was accustomed to give to his later writings. This fact calls for no excuse. Not only are we dealing here with the earliest product of his pen, but with impressions and observations written down hastily during pauses in his long march. He apparently intended to use this raw material at some time for another book. If the record, as it stands, lacks finish and adornment, it also possesses the immediacy and the freshness of first impressions. The sources which I have used in preparing this volume are threefold: (i) the original journal, of which the first half contained many interlinear revisions and expansions, and a considerable number of rough pencil sketches of plants, trees, scenery, and notable adventures; a wide-spaced, typewritten, rough copy of the journal, apparently in large part dictated to a stenographer; it is only slightly revised, and comparison with the original journal shows many significant omissions and additions; two separate www.museumoftravel.org 96 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org elaborations of his experiences in Savannah when he camped there for a week in the Bonaventure graveyard. Throughout my work upon the primary and secondary materials I was impressed with the scrupu lous fidelity with which he adhered to the facts and impressions set down in the original journal. Readers of Muir s writings need scarcely be told that this book, autobiographically, bridges the period between The Story of my Boyhood and Youth and My First Summer in the Sierra. However, one span of the bridge was lacking, for the journal ends with Mr. Muir s arrival in San Francisco about the first of April, 1868, while his first summer in the Sierra was that of 1869. By excerpting from a letter a summary account of his first visit to Yosemite, and including a description of Twenty Hill Hollow, where he spent a large part of his first year in California, the connection is made complete. The last chapter was first published as an article in the Overland Monthly of July, 1872.

Murphey Claude C. (w2309) Clarence M. Darling and Claude C. Murphey, age 19 and 20 respectively, left Jackson, Michigan, on May 2, 1904, to make a trip by bicycle through every state and territory within the boundary lines of the United States proper, namely, fortv-five states, four territories, and the District of Columbia'. The trip was the result of a wager. Upon the success of the tour a purse of five thousand dollars would be won by the two contestants providing that they lived up to all the terms and stipulations of the wager. The conditions were that they were to start on this long journey penniless, while on the trip they were neither to beg, work, borrow, nor steal, all the expenses of the tour to be met by the profits resulting from the sale of an aluminum card-receiver or ash-tray, a fac-simile of which is given on one of the following pages. Also the entire journey was to be made and completed within one year and six months from the date of starting, that is before November 2, 1905.

Nellis George W. Jr. (w2316) In 1887 George Nellis became the third person to ride across the United States, from Herkimer, New York to San Francisco, shaving several weeks off Thomas Stevens’ time, thus becoming the first to “race across the United States.” Throughout this account, Hayes reports on the state of in the late nineteenth century. This wheelman was born in the Mohawk Valley town of Herkimer in the same year as Van Meerbeke and Spier, 1865. Herkimer is located about 20 miles from the East Springfield home of transcontinental rider Theron Gray and 40 miles from the Nelson Bradt's boyhood home, Johnstown, New York. For unknown reasons all high wheel riders who crossed America, except Stevens, came from the northeast. The Nellis's were part of the Palatine settlers who had been in the Valley since the early 18th century. George's family valued education, but George was more interested in the newspaper business than he was in the medical education obtained by his two brothers. As a young man he was of medium stature, as were most other transcontinental riders and he weighed about 150 pounds. He rode a 52" nickel-plated Columbia Expert, but seldom rode more than 50 miles on local rides. His article on "Cycling in America," published in the May 1887 issue of the Herkimer Citizen, revealed his thoughts and plans for a great adventure. "The next important event in cycling history is found in the wonderful trip of Thomas Stevens in 1884….His success persuaded others to attempt the journey and in 1886 George B. Thayer, F. E. Van Meerbeke, and S. G. Spier rode across the Continent on bicycles…. Autographed letters in the writer's possession from these wheelmen state that the trip is engendered with far less danger than is supposed….In touring across the continent one will meet with adventures to be had in no other way….No baggage is carried beyond articles of absolute necessity. Weight is an important desideratum and beyond a pair of hose, a wrapper and handkerchiefs, no extra clothing is necessary to the economical bicyclist." Nellis had done his homework. A route almost identical to that used by Stevens was planned, except Nellis would follow the northern, rather than the southern, shoreline of Lake Erie. Mail pickup cities about every 500 miles had been established, and former Herkimer residents living along his route had been contacted. The final details were arrangements with the Herkimer Citizen, the Herkimer Democrat, and the Wheel and Recreation of New York City to publish his letter accounts of the journey. He departed from Herkimer on May 24, 1887 in the company of a friend who rode with him as far as Niagara Falls. In addition to viewing the Falls there were stops in other spots frequented by touring wheelmen: Chicago, Salt Lake City, and Lake Tahoe. Salt Lake City was seen as the place to consider the "Mormon Question". Although polygamy had been outlawed, there was still considerable curiosity about the practice and Stevens even reported meeting a Mormon with two wives. Nellis' letters contained mileage details, complaints of terrible roads, and accounts of walking countless miles. Readers were also supplied with information about obtaining lodging and sufficient food since riders were always hungry and often lost 20 pounds in the early stages of a ride. Nellis found pleasure in describing an occurrence in a small Indiana town on June 8, 1887. "We repair to the corner grocery. Glory! A stem of bananas. Glorious! Some molasses cookies. 'Cookies 8 cents a dozen, and I'll give you all the bananas you can eat for 25 cents.' I take six bananas and a dozen cookies. Five minutes later I want six more bananas and in ten minutes later I want six more bananas. Bananas are going down fast. Extraordinary demand and two dozen have been laid away. 'Here, take your quarter and get out of this.'" His letter reports are distinctive for reporting on developments in the West and assessing the www.museumoftravel.org 98 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org opportunities awaiting those that leave their Eastern homes in search of fortune and a better life beyond the Mississippi. Most of his comparisons favored the East, but after reaching San Francisco in 72 days, on August 4, 1887, he was more willing to concede that there were great opportunities for young professional men who are not afraid of hard work. Nellis was also impressed with the natural wonders of the Golden State. He marveled at the gigantic trees near Mariposa and Yosemite enraptured him. After about ten days of such pleasurable activity he booked passage home on the steamer San Blas, which left for Panama on August 15, with a stop at Mazatlan, Mexico. Travelers crossed the Isthmus of Panama by a four-hour train ride that cost $25. The steamship Newport carried its passengers to New York City. He arrived on September 7, 1887 and after a few days of sightseeing he made the three-day bicycle trip to his Herkimer home where he was accorded a warm welcome and presented with a gold medal inscribed "champion long distance bicycle rider, 1887." Nellis soon married and embarked on a successful journalistic career. His bicycle resided for many years in Henry Ford's museum, but it was eventually returned to Herkimer, as were Nellis' ashes when he died in 1948. The three separate newspaper accounts of his ride totaled about 40,000 words. They provide an excellent description of his journey and they formed the basis of the three-part article on Nellis and his trip that appeared in numbers 57, 58, and 59 of The Wheelmen magazine.

Orville Ewing (w2344) Orville Ewing billed himself as an "artist from the Old West". He traveled the United States with his covered wagon/trailer and menagerie for about 30 years starting in 1938. He sold many different postcards of himself over the years. These are from the 1950s. I have five different postcards of him, and I know there are a lot more. The text on the front of the first card was used on many of his postcards, and there seems to be very little other information about him available. Have traveled from the Atlantic to Pacific Coasts and from Canada to Mexico — at San Francisco World's Fair in 1939, and at the New York World's Fair in 1940. — I gave up oil painting becasus the paint affected my health, and started pencil sketching in 1938. http://postcardy.blogspot.ch/2013/05/orville-ewing-artist-from-old-west.html

Pour se rendre aux Indes ou dans l'extrême Orient, le voyageur n'a plus que l'embarras du choix: chaque semaine, de Marseille, de Southampton, de Trieste, de Brindisi, partent des bateaux à vapeur à destination de Port-Saïd, et telles sont aujourd'hui la rapidité et la facilité des communications, que l'on peut en quinze jours avoir vu les pyramides, traversé le désert qui sépare Le Caire de Suez, sillonné la Mer-Rouge dans toute sa brûlante étendue, puis, le détroit de Bab-el-Viandeb franchi, se trouver transporté en Asie, à Aden, dans la partie la plus pittoresque de l' Arabie-Heureuse. Soixante jours après avoir quitté Marseille, si l'on ne fait que passer quelque temps à Ceylan, à Hong-kong et à Shang-haï, on naviguera déjà dans le grand Océan-Pacifique, et, si le bâtiment qui vous porte est appelé à faire la relâche de Honolulu aux îles Sandwich, vous aurez devant les yeux la merveilleuse végétation des archipels océaniens.

Ramsey Alice (w2398) Motivated by the spirit of adventure, Alice Ramsey sought to do what had never been done before. On June 9, 1909, Alice Ramsey and three other women left New York City while driving a Maxwell touring car. Forty-one driving days, 11 tires and 3,800 miles later they arrived in San Francisco, where they were met by a large fanfare celebration. Alice Ramsey and her companions (who did not drive during the trip) experienced numerous challenges during the journey, including bad roads, poor weather, flat tires and mechanical breakdowns. In Nebraska, they met up with Indians, feared the worst, then discovered the Indians were just hunting jackrabbits. In Wyoming, the group was stopped temporarily by men on horseback, a posse tracking a murder. In 1961, Ramsey chronicled the adventure in her book, Veil, Duster and Tire Iron. On October 17, 2000, Alice Huyler Ramsey became the first woman to be inducted into the Automotive Hall of Fame. Her courage and determination have inspired countless women to pursue automotive- related goals and dreams. http://www.automotivehalloffame.org/inductee/alice-huyler-ramsey/177/

Two and a half years ago Young Rodrigues was one of the reserved, dignified "burghers" in the capital of the Dutch, where he was employed on the Telegraaf, the leading newspaper in Holland. That was before the wanderlust gripped his heart and made him bid farewell to the beloved foot protecting product of poplar and willow and led him in strange foreign lands, where the nerve quieting whiz, of ancient windmill was an unknown. He started from Amsterdam and first "did" the old world. Dressed as a Dutch fisherman, wearing the necessary wooden shoes and flowing breeches, he walked from the shores of the Atlantic ocean to tho balmy beach of the Mediterranean and Indian oceans. He entered the gates of modern Paris, London and Vienna, as well as ancient Constantinople, Eternal Rome, Impervious St. Petersburg, mysterious Cairo and . While on his route he established many records in pedestrianism, and when he landed in New York, about 13 months ago, on the ill-fated steamship Princess Irene of the North German Lloyd line from Messina, Italy, where he almost starved to death during a recent disaster, he was undisputed champion long dlstauce walker of Holland, England, Switzerland, France and Italy. Rodrigues is a highly educated young man of 22, 6 feet tall, tipping the scales at 145 and as perfect a type of splendid manhood and health as ever walked the streets of Ogden. He is purely built along pedestrian lines-long, slender, rank, still muscular - and possessing an enormous chest development acquired through years of walking and vigorous exercise. In addition to his pedestrian ability, he is gifted with an unusually splendid baritone voice, whose strains have thrilled numerous show houses of almost every country in both old and new world; and even when fate scemed against him resounded on the crowded boulevards of London and Edinburgh. In this country he has walked many thousands of miles; from New York he went via Chicago, Kansas www.museumoftravel.org 112 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

Rose John (w2455) A large tombstone—with a goat’s head carved to the right and a revolver to the left—marks the resting place of John “Overland Jack” Rose in Chilton Cemetery in Big Sandy. Centered above his name, a www.museumoftravel.org 113 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org small oval holds a picture of John, his wagon, and his goat team. John, born in Virginia in 1888, fell beneath the wheels of a freight train and lost both of his legs at age nine. By means of hand-walking props that he made himself, he was able to remain ambulatory and complete his education. At age 20, he began traveling the country, driving a small wagon drawn by goats. He eventually settled in Big Sandy, built a home beside Everman Lake, and, refusing public aid or charity, supported himself and his goats by doing small repair jobs on watches, eyeglasses, guns, and antique clocks. Each year in early spring, “The Goat Man,” as townspeople affectionately called him, would set out from Big Sandy, making about 10 miles a day, stopping to sell postcards of himself for a dime, and doing repair work whenever he could find it. By the time automobiles made the roads too dangerous and ended his travels, he had toured 19 states and covered some 30,000 miles. Overland Jack died in 1962. His personal property was auctioned, and his goat cart donated to Tyler’s Caldwell Zoo. https://www.texashighways.com/people/item/6311-the-goat-man-of-big-sandy-john-overland-jack-rose

Sachtleben William Lewis (w2463) Foreword The boldness and courage that Thomas Allen and William Sachtleben display in this book is impressive. On June 14, 1890, just one day after they graduated from Washington University in Saint Louis, Missouri, they set out on a record -breaking journey around the world. As they put it, they did it hoping to add practical experience to the book knowledge they had acquired in college. As they traveled, they hoped to meet the people of the world face-to-face, unhindered by protective tour guides and luxurious accomodations. That's why in this book you will see them constantly scheming to escape the zaptiehs (guards) that local leaders force upon them. It's also why they endure, with only modest complain, such utterly horrible living conditions. As their primary means of travel they chose the then-new "safety bicycle". As they admitted, it wasn't because they were experienced bicyclists. At that time, few people were. Earlier forms of the bicycle had been awkward and dangerous. With its two equal-sized wheels, chain-driven rear wheel, and inflated rubber tires, the safety bicycle was such a dramatic improvement that virtually all present-day bicycles follow its design. In a sense, the 300 million bicycles now in China owe their existence to these two young men who first demonstrated the advantages of a "little mule that you drive by the ears and kick in the sides to make him go". The inspiration for their journey was apparently Thomas Stevens then popular two volume, 1887-88 work, Around the World on a bicycle. (Stevens bicycle had been what was then called the ordinary design, wich precariously poised its rider some six feet in the air atop a giant wheel). Parts of their route were similar to that of Stevens, but they were proud of the fact that they succeeded at the very point where Stevens failed. Legal and visa difficulties forced Stevens south through India rather than along the more adventurous route Allen and Sachtleben took through almost lawless regions where Russia and China were then vying for power. This book covers the most interesting part of their 15'000 mile, round-the-world trip. It leaves out the 8'000 miles they traveled (like Stevens) across Europe and United States and focuses on their 7'000 mile trip through Asia from Constantinople (Istanbul), then the political center of the Near East, to Peking (today's Beijing), capital of the most populous nation in the Far East. In 1895, just two years after they returned to the United States, another cyclist, Frank G. Lenz (1867-94), was murdered while attempting repeat their adventure.

Samuelsen Frank (w2467) True Log of the Fox On June 6th, 1896 George Harbo and Frank Samuelsen departed from New York's Battery in an 18 foot rowboat destination Europe. They took the northern route skirting in and out of the shipping lanes. The same shipping passages that the Titanic would later use and the same areas fished by Gloucester and Nova Scotia fisherman. They encountered a pod of whales, gale force winds and high following seas. At one point they were broadsided by a large wave and capsized. They were prepared, and the 'hand rails' which were placed on the keel, by their design, helped them right the small open boat in minutes. Rowing, each man put in a total of 18 hours a day. They never could both sleep because their small vessel would stray off course without constant rowing. They often averaged 50 - 60 miles per day on their 3,000 mile voyage. On August 1st they arrived at the Sicily Islands which is the British Isles most western point in a record time of 55 days. Since that achievement many rowers have attempted to best this record, but as of this date 2 Men in an open rowboat, without sail, motor, cover or rudder, have yet to beat this time or match the achievement with corresponding equipment. http://www.bronzesea.org/Pages/TrueLogoftheFox.aspx

Schafer Joseph & Frederick (w2478) Joseph Schafer (1867-1941) Joseph Schafer was Oregon's first academically trained, professional historian, serving on the faculty of the University of Oregon for twenty years. While in Eugene, he wrote what became a classic textbook on Pacific Northwest history. A student of Frederick Jackson Turner’s at the University of Wisconsin, Schafer remained a defender of Turner's famous "frontier thesis" of American history—which ascribed the nation's profoundly democratic, innovative, and individualistic tendencies to the frontier experience—long after many historians had turned against it. Born in 1867 on a farm near Muscoda, Wisconsin, Schafer was the son of German immigrant parents. The progressive political and social views of his father, Mathias Schafer, a schoolteacher and a relatively prosperous farmer, helped shape Joseph’s views on history, politics, and society. He obtained a teaching certificate in 1889 from Madison Normal School in Dakota Territory (now South Dakota) and taught high school for two years before enrolling as a junior at the University of Wisconsin in Madison in 1892. He received a bachelor’s degree in 1894 and began his graduate studies with Frederick Jackson Turner as his advisor and mentor. He married Lily Abbott in 1895; they would have six children. With work on his doctorate completed except for finishing the dissertation, Schafer accepted a teaching position at the University of Oregon in 1900. On his way west, in order to gain a better sense of the experiences of Oregon-bound emigrants during the 1840s-1850s, Schafer and a friend bicycled from Omaha, Nebraska, along the South Platte River to Cheyenne, Wyoming. He would receive his PhD from the University of Wisconsin in 1906. In Eugene, Schafer played an important role in university president Prince Lucien Campbell's campaign to enhance the institution's professional reputation. While teaching courses, Schafer’s output of books was prodigious, and his scores of articles appeared in such venues as the Journal of the Mississippi Valley Historical Association, Agricultural History, Oregon Historical Quarterly, and the Wisconsin Magazine of History. A true Progressive, Schafer worked to improve Oregon's public schools through providing methods forbetter training of , and he participated in Rural Life uplift projects—Progressive-era efforts to enrich the cultural life and broaden the knowledge of rural residents—by giving lectures in small communities across the state. Inspired by Wisconsin's success in the endeavor, he was prominent in Oregon's "free library" movement. A History of the Pacific Northwest, which Schafer published in 1905 and revised in 1918, set a new www.museumoftravel.org 117 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org standard for the region, far surpassing in conceptual sophistication the nineteenth-century state histories of the West published by H.H. Bancroft and others. Instead of producing a narrative defined by political boundaries, he took a broader, regional view. He considered the Northwest's most recent decades, including the development of transportation, agriculture, and industry, as well as social- political trends. In the 1918 edition, for example, Schafer wrote that although "the populations of Northwest cities" were "less complex" than those of large eastern and midwestern cities, "in them one still found the deep social rift between the 'masses' and the 'classes' which constitutes the special problem of American democracy." Neither a paean to hardy American pioneers nor a muckraking exposé of their failings, the book marked the historiographical maturity of the Pacific Northwest. A History of the Pacific Northwest was reprinted many times and was the region's basic history text into the 1950s, when it was replaced by Empire of the Columbia, by Dorothy O. Johansen and Charles M. Gates. In 1920, the State Historical Society of Wisconsin lured Schafer back to Madison to serve as its superintendent and editor of the Wisconsin Magazine of History. He focused his energy on an ambitious project, the Wisconsin Domesday Book, a series of fine-grained studies of the state's farming and mining locales. Schafer joined the debate on the American frontier as a supposed "safety valve" that prevented labor strife. He wrote a biography of statesman and political reformer Carl Schurz, and his Social History of American Agriculture became a classic in the field. He served as president of the Mississippi Valley Historical Society (now the Organization of American Historians) and the Agricultural History Society. In politics, Schafer was an internationalist, an anti-imperialist, and, according to his colleague John D. Hicks, a "consistent liberal who spoke out fearlessly in defense of his views." With some of his children living in Oregon, Schafer returned twice to Eugene to teach summer courses. The University of Oregon awarded him an honorary L.L.D. degree in 1933. Schafer died on January 27, 1941. Alfred Powers, writing in the Oregon Historical Quarterly, remembered that half of Schafer's "mature, creative, productive life—the magnificent, buoyant tireless first half—was given to Oregon." https://oregonencyclopedia.org/articles/schafer_joseph_1867_1941_/#.WP4WAGclFhE

Schwarz Hans (w2020) It was a special time, an envelope of peace in a war-weary Europe. The 1930s presented a unique opportunity for three wandering Swiss horsemen to journey across a recovering continent, a chance to see the last remnants of nineteenth century village life before it was swept away forever by the horrors of the Second World War. Hans Schwarz was just the man to lead such a mounted expedition. A lifelong horseman, Schwarz conceived of the idea of riding from the mighty frozen Alps where he lived to the steamy plains of faraway Turkey. The resulting ride can only be described as idyllic. Along with two companions, the amiable Swiss Long Rider peeked at tiny Liechtenstein, crossed Austria, explored Romania, fled Albania, endured Yugoslavia, and finally reached Turkey, then rode back again! His book, Vier Pferde, Ein Hund und Drei Soldaten, is more than just a well-written Swiss adventure tale. Schwarz's trip, and the resulting book, both took on legendary status in the German-speaking world, and inspired three generations of Swiss Long Riders to take to the saddle, including legendary equestrian travellers, Hans Jürgen and Claudia Gottet, who rode www.museumoftravel.org 119 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org from Arabia to Switzerland on their native Arab horses. http://www.thelongridersguild.com/albania.htm

Schwarzenbach Annemarie (w2492) Fortemente androgina, apertamente lesbica, grande viaggiatrice, dipendente da alcol e droghe (morfina in particolare), ribelle e contrastata, la Schwarzenbach fu una delle controverse protagoniste della vita culturale bohémien mitteleuropea tra la prima e la seconda guerra mondiale. Nata in una ricca famiglia di industriali svizzeri del settore tessile con forti simpatie naziste, entrò nel circolo di Erika e Klaus Mann, i figli di Thomas Mann, e fu proprio grazie al loro incoraggiamento che intraprese la professione di scrittrice. Dal 1933 partecipa in Oriente ad alcune campagne di scavi archeologici. Soggiorna per periodi più o meno lunghi in Siria e in Iran. Il 25 maggio 1935 sposa Claude Clarac, diplomatico francese a Teheran, perdendo la cittadinanza elvetica, ma acquisendo un passaporto diplomatico. Viaggia molto negli Stati Uniti, dove realizza diversi servizi giornalistici e fotografici pubblicati in diversi quotidiani svizzeri. Nel 1939 intraprende, insieme alla ginevrina Ella Maillart, quella che probabilmente resta una delle sue imprese più emozionanti raggiungendo in automobile il continente indiano. Per farlo attraverseranno, tra gli altri stati, l'Iran e l'Afghanistan. Al termine del loro itinerario, che le trova a Kabul proprio mentre in Europa scoppia la seconda guerra mondiale, la Maillart scriverà un libro che in italiano è tradotto con il titolo La via crudele. Due donne in viaggio dall'Europa a Kabul (EDT, Torino, 2001) e dove la Schwarzenbach è descritta con lo pseudonimo Christina. Dopo la sua morte, avvenuta per le conseguenze di un incidente in bicicletta accadutole il 6 settembre 1942, la Schwarzenbach cade nell'oblio fino alla metà degli anni 1980, quando l'editore svizzero Huber iniziò a ripubblicare le sue opere. Roger Perret ha curato, per l'editore Lenos di Basilea, la stampa di alcuni testi inediti, lasciati all'Archivio svizzero di letteratura presso la Biblioteca nazionale svizzera a Berna. In questo fondo, oltre ai manoscritti, alla corrispondenza e ai lavori nell'ambito giornalistico sopravvissuti alla distruzione da parte della madre e della nonna, si trovano circa 7.000 fotografie che documentano i diversi viaggi intrapresi da Annemarie Schwarzenbach negli anni 1933-1942. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annemarie_Schwarzenbach

Sconosciuto (w2498) In late 1910, three American adventurers set off on a remarkable around-the-world journey by automobile. Sponsored by the Hupp Motor Car Corporation, the trip was intended to publicize the durability of the Hupmobile and help stimulate export sales. The car was first driven from Detroit to San Francisco—a very difficult journey in its own right in 1910. From San Francisco, the car and its drivers took a steamship to Hawaii, and from there to Fiji, Australia, New Zealand, and Tasmania, unloading and touring at each port of call. The men and their machine spent the next five weeks attempting to drive through the Philippines, and then pushed on to Japan and China, where they managed to stay one step ahead of the Chinese revolution. They then drove across India, and from there, sailed to Egypt, brining the first automobile ever to be seen in that country. Next, the Hupmobilists sailed to Italy. In Rome, the adventurers met Pope Pius X, and then drove north to Germany and France. They crossed the English Channel to Folkstone, toured England, and then ferried from Liverpool to Ireland. They returned to New York in time for the 1912 auto show. In the end, the Hupmobile was driven 41,000 miles and transported by steamship another 28,000. A new world was dawning, both for transportation and for American business enterprise.

Sheneman William Henry (w2613) From Seattle, Washington to Marysville, Ohio on a Fowler Truss frame wheel in 53 days, covering over 2,600 miles on eighty-five dollars and fifty-nine cents. That is how William Henry Sheneman spent the summer of 1896.

On the day he left Seattle, a newspaper article of June 18, 1896 comments that it is becoming the fashion to "visit the old folks at home by taking the wheel route rather than a train when an expert wheelman wants to go back East." It referred to my great-uncle, Will Sheneman, who had been living in Seattle for ten years, and was the nomad of the family. The article notes he is a 200 pounder who expects to be considerably thinner by the time he reaches Union County, Ohio where he was born, and where his folks live. www.museumoftravel.org 143 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

Along with 25 pounds of luggage, consisting of a roll of blankets, a couple changes of clothing, a canteen and a Kodak camera, he carried a notebook that has been handed down to me through three generations. It is filled with his day-by-day description of his trip including mileage covered, and an accounting of expenses. Leafing through its yellowed pages brings up vivid pictures of his adventures, trials and triumphs. Since roads were few, and not numbered in those days, he lost the way many times, and had to retrace his route. He often walked the railroad tracks carrying his wheel where there were no roads. At the two mile long Stampede Tunnel on the Oregon Shortline Railroad he walked through with permission from the telegrapher. He writes: "Knowing it was two hours before the next train was due to pass under the mountain I entered the tunnel and groped in the darkness, but could not walk straight, running against first one rail and then the other. So difficult was it to walk that I could make no progress, and would be caught by the next train if I did not go faster. Finally I tried walking on the rail and using my wheel for a cane. In this way I made fairly good time and in fifty minutes I had passed through and was again in daylight."

He followed the old stage-coach road in Oregon for several hundred miles. Since the railroads came through it had degenerated into no more than a trail, but evidence remained of channels cut by carriage wheels where the ground was cut up for ten or twelve rods wide.

Travel was difficult through the sandy deserts and over the mountain passes. On June 24th while in eastern Oregon, Will noted the temperature was 100 degrees in the shade, and there was no shade. He writes: "About 1:00 PM I came to sand and had to abandon riding although the sand was so hot it almost burned my feet, and I would sink to my ankles every step. I could not lead my wheel but had to get behind and push. Finally after my shoes were full of sand I took them off and walked in my stockings."

Slocum Joshua (w2626) Per i due anni successivi lavorò come maestro d'ascia, fino ad un giorno di mezzo inverno del 1892, quando iniziò la storia del leggendario Spray. Tornato a casa, completamente rovinato, ebbe una strana offerta da un vecchio comandante cacciatore di balene: gli regalava il suo sloop in disarmo. Il giorno dopo scoprì che si trattava di un relitto. Ricostruì da solo lo Spray, così si chiamava quel vecchio legno risalente al 1801. Scrisse nel suo libro: "Lo feci saldo, robusto e bello. Chiglia, braccioli e ordinate di dura quercia. Il fasciame era di pino della Georgia, spesso tre centimetri e mezzo. Le impavesate fatte con scalmotti di quercia bianca, i corsi di coperta di pino bianco". La sera del 24 aprile 1895, Slocum salpò con lo Spray da Boston senza una meta precisa. Tre anni, due mesi e due giorni dopo, il 27 giugno del 1898, dopo una traversata di circa 46.000 miglia, alle 01:00 gettò l'ancora nel porto di Newport. Aveva circumnavigato il globo, da est verso ovest, passando per lo stretto di Magellano e la Terra del Fuoco. Il suo terzo libro Solo, intorno al mondo ebbe un buon successo e permise a Slocum di acquistare la sua prima casa in terraferma. Come tutti i grandi miti della storia, la sua morte è avvolta nel mistero. Nel 1909, all'età di 65 anni, Joshua Slocum salpò per l'ultima volta con lo Spray verso le Indie Occidentali. Non arrivò mai. Né Joshua Slocum né lo Spray furono più ritrovati. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joshua_Slocum

Speck Oskar (w2638) You can be forgiven for not knowing about Oskar Speck. His story went untold for many years but remains one of the longest journeys (30,000miles) ever undertaken by kayak. He left Ulm, Germany in 1932 and paddled to Australia, arriving in September 1939, unbeknown to him two weeks after the start of World War II. He was met by two policemen who congratulated him and then told him he would be interned until after the War had ended. Thus for years there was little known of his incredible journey in a wood frame and canvas folding Pioneer Faltboot double kayak. When he set off, without a farewell from anyone, down the River Danube towards the Mediterranean, his original goal was Cyprus where he hoped to find work in the copper mines. But en route he decided to ’see the world’ and continue to Australia. He had the kayak shipped from Larnaka to the Syrian coast then took a bus across Syria to Meskene on the Upper Euphrates River thus avoiding the busy Suez Canal. His kayak was replaced four times during the 7 year journey. He capsized 10 times and was arrested, shot at and had his kayak stolen. It was remarkable that he survived at all considering.

This 5'8" 150 pound wheelmen was also born in 1865 to a prosperous farm family who lived in New Lebanon, New York. The town is located close to the Massachusetts State line and was best known for its flourishing Shaker Community that once existed there. The San Francisco Morning Call of September 11, 1886 noted, "Mr. Spier asserts that he has ridden the full distance on his bicycle, and, as a matter of proof, he carries a book in which each postmaster along the route has recorded his name, and also affixes the official stamp of his office. To several of our local bicyclists it seems astonishing that he managed to make such remarkable time, considering the rough roads he had to ride over and the excessive heat of the summer's sun." The article concluded with the observation, "The young man does not at all resemble an athlete who had just completed the great task of traversing the continent on wheels. Spier looks quite fresh…Van Meerbeke looked completely worn out when he arrived in this city last Wednesday, after accomplishing his wonderful ride across the continent by way of New Orleans and Arizona. There is unquestionably a great difference in the facial appearance of the two men. Van Meerbeke shows the effects of the sun, Spier's features are not even bronzed." One explanation for the difference was the possibility that Spier covered much of the distance by riding freight trains at times as was admittedly done by others. Karl Kron (xcvii and xcviii) felt Spier's "mileage figures are entirely untrustworthy…and his character is further shown by the fact that, after writing the expected puff of his 52 in. Expert as 'the best,' he sold puffs of other makes as 'the best'." Kron made an abstract of a typewritten copy of Spier's daily log, but he claimed he was unable to print it because of lack of space. A rather odd explanation when his book, Ten Thousand Miles On A Bicycle had 799 pages. The Bicycling World of March 7, 1890 was more candid when they referred to Spier as, "the young man who rode from New York to San Francisco, that is, a part of the way." After the ride Spier returned briefly to New Lebanon, but he was soon back in California and active in cycling circles. In 1890 he lost his amateur status by competing with professional riders in a six day race held in San Francisco, and he succeeded W. S. Wing as manager of the prominent Osborn and Alexander cycle store at 628 Market Street in San Francisco. Spier may have moved to Los Angeles in the spring of 1890 for the Bicycling World of May 23 and July 25, 1890 reported that Mrs. Spier had been given a handsome Rambler by Gormully and Jeffery and that the couple was planning to ride across America in 1891. It is unlikely that the plan was implemented. The last mention of Spier in Bicycling World came on October 12, 1894 when it was noted that Spier had returned from a tour though Mexico and was promoting the Spier 25-mile handicap race in Los Angeles. There is no known account of Spier's 1886 ride other than the newspaper articles cited.

Stevens Thomas (w2651) He is of medium height (5'5") and well built (about 140 pounds), he has a very pleasing manner. He is naturally the fairest of blondes, but so thoroughly have the sun and the wind done their work that, were it not for his light moustache, his face would be taken for anything rather than a white man's. He is an Englishman by birth, and is about 29 years of age. His attire consisted of a blue flannel shirt, brown knickerbockers, blue stockings, canvas shoes, and a once white military helmet hat. A notebook was strapped to the head of his machine. His clothing showed unmistakable signs of hard usage. His knickerbockers have been replaced many times. The Boston Daily Globe, 05.08.1884 Terminò il viaggio intorno al globo nel 1887. Pubblicò dei resoconti del suo viaggio nella rivista Outing e nel libro Around the world on a bicycle, diventando un punto di riferimento per gli avventurieri dell'epoca. And so the bicycle part of the tour around the world, which was begun April 22, 1884, at San Francisco, California, ends December 17, 1886, at Yokohama. At this port I board the Pacific mail steamer City of Peking, which in seventeen days lands me in San Francisco. Of the enthusiastic reception accorded me by the San Francisco Bicycle Club, the Bay City Wheelmen, and by various clubs throughout the United States, the daily press of the time contains ample record. Here, I beg leave to hope that the courtesies then so warmly extended may find an echoing response in this long record of the adventures that had their beginning and ending at the Golden Gate.

Tanner Richard J. (w2677) "Diamond Dick" Tanner The life of Richard J. "Diamond Dick" Tanner (1869-1943) encompassed a noteworthy long-distance www.museumoftravel.org 150 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org horseback ride, circus stardom as a crack shot, a medical career in Norfolk, and finally a reappearance as "the original Diamond Dick," when his claim to the title was challenged. For a complete account, see "The Variegated Life of Norfolk's Diamond Dick," by L. Boyd Finch in the Winter 2003 issue of Nebraska History. It is difficult to pinpoint Tanner's activities as a youth until his long-distance horseback ride from Lincoln, Nebraska, to New York City and then back across country in 1893. Profiting from the publicity generated by his feat, Tanner by 1894-95 was appearing in frontier shows as Denver Dick, a crack marksman. As Diamond Dick he performed in circuses from 1895 until 1905. He formed his own traveling show. His shooting act was impressive, but solid evidence that Tanner performed with Buffalo Bill's Wild West (as Tanner later claimed) is missing. In 1905 Tanner entered Cotner College (then including Lincoln Medical College) and Nebraska Wesleyan University. He received the M.D. degree in 1909 and ceased using the name Diamond Dick. In 1910 he opened a medical practice in Norfolk and began promoting his medical lectures and herbal medications. Dr. Tanner's new career was successful, but by the early 1920s he was longing to return to show business. His reemergence as Diamond Dick at the August 28, 1925, Pioneer Days Celebration in Norfolk was a publicity success. But Tanner's claim to the title was challenged, especially by the adherents of George B. McClellan, a Kansas medicine showman who had also used the name from the 1880s to 1911. The publicity generated by these events (as well as the ongoing popularity of Diamond Dick dime novels) allowed Tanner to build his celebrity. He invited a number of old frontier figures, including W. F. "Doc" Carver and Luther H. North, to appear with him in a Norfolk parade in mid-June 1927. The successful gathering was a validation of Tanner's identity as Diamond Dick. By the time of his death in 1943, Tanner was widely (if somewhat inaccurately) portrayed as a relic of the frontier. http://www.nebraskahistory.org/publish/publicat/timeline/diamond-dick-tanner.htm

Thayer George B. (w2683) Thayer wrote a series of articles for the Hartford Evening Post describing his round trip journey from Hartford to San Francisco and back. He rode from Hartford to Salt Lake City before taking the train to Lake Tahoe, and then rode the remainder of the way to San Francisco. Thayer carried a bottle of water from the Atlantic, which he poured into the Pacific before returning east, a majority of the way by train. Mr. Thayer was the consummate bicycle tourist who made a circuitous seven-month pleasure trip of 11,000 miles across the United States and back by wheel, ship, and train. He was not averse to taking freight or passenger trains when tired of riding or afflicted by ailments such as boils. In his book Pedal and Path Across the Continent (p. 79) he tells us, "After six hundred miles through the states of Illinois and Iowa, over the prairies, both level and rolling, I am frank to acknowledge that the prospect of five hundred miles more of the same kind of scenery did not make me over enthusiastic to travel it on my wheel. The object of the trip was not to make or break records, and thus far, whenever I have found it desirable to take a train, I have done so." His short stature that restricted him to riding a small wheel bicycle proved an advantage on the train for he could comfortably nap on the seats. He provides a description of life on the train. "The newsboys on the trains out here are newsmen, full grown men. The one on the train worked steadily all the afternoon with his papers, books, oranges, bananas, etc., and finally when every one was tired of the very sight of him he brought in a basket of toys and sitting down on the arms of the seats, amused the children in the car with snakes and jumping jacks for half an hour or more. Great liberty is allowed passengers traveling such long distances and little boys play leap-frog and perform all sorts of gymnastic exercises in the aisle." (Hartford Evening Post, June 15, 1886) In Karl Kron's book (xcviii) we are told that Thayer was born of May 13, 1853 in Vernon, Connecticut and that he was engaged in the grocery business until the end of 1885. His love affair with the bicycle began in the early 1870s when he rode boneshakers. He graduated to high wheelers and was quite proficient since he rode 2,500 miles in 1885 with only a few falls. He began his pleasure trip, at age 33, from Vernon on April 10, 1886 riding a 46" nickel plated Columbia Expert that he became quite fond of by the time he reached California. "And it would be almost ungrateful to the machine now not to say a word in its favor, for I have a feeling of affection towards this particular Expert that is akin to that felt by an equestrian for a strong, able horse that has carried him safely over so much country." (Hartford Evening Post, August 13, 1886) His Columbia was equipped with a Larkin cyclometer and he wore a corduroy suit with a leather seat. Unlike most riders who carried a satchel attached to the handlebars, Thayer wore a knapsack that weighed about 15 pounds and included some spare parts. His only complaint about this arrangement was the fact that when he took a header the knapsack struck the back of his head. His ride began by crossing Connecticut to reach the lower Hudson Valley and then north to Albany. He followed the route used by Stevens and Spier to Cleveland and then he went south to Columbus, Ohio and took the National Pike toward Chicago. He crossed Iowa and Nebraska and went a bit south into Colorado before heading for Salt Lake City and then reaching San Francisco by train. There was a great deal of sightseeing en route. He visited Hudson River attractions, was shown Niagara Falls by members of the Buffalo Bicycle Club (they had also hosted Stevens), and viewed President Garfield's (assassinated July 2, 1881) home near Cleveland. Several days were spent in Chicago to visit the stockyards, the parks, and other attractions. He also paid attention to state capitol building along his www.museumoftravel.org 152 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org route, went to the top of Pike's Peak, and saw Lake Tahoe. There were also stops to see relatives or friends. He saw a brother in Grinnell, Iowa, accidentally met Frank Van Meerbeke in Green River, Wyoming Territory, and stayed with Connecticut friends in San Francisco. When he arrived in San Francisco about July 29, 1886 he was able to fulfill one of his goals as reported in the Hartford Evening Post of August 13, 1886. "The prime motive of the journey was to see the Yosemite and carry that bottle of liquid to California. The cork was not even drawn during the entire journey, and yet that liquid had a wonderful power in keeping my spirits up…Last fall while riding along the rocky shores of Nahant, I filled a small bottle with water from the Atlantic Ocean. To- day I emptied part of that water into the Pacific ocean near the Cliff house and now I have a bottle filled with water taken from the Atlantic and from the Pacific oceans and in the bottom of the bottle are some pebbles and sand, the former from the Atlantic, the latter from the Pacific." After visiting the sights in California, Thayer traveled by ship to Portland, Oregon. His return to the East began from that point and he went through Idaho, Salt Lake, Denver, and St. Louis to Kentucky, West Virginia and Maryland by bike and train. More stops and sightseeing were done in route. One of the most colorful events was the St. Louis parade in which he participated as an aide to the grand marshall on the cold frosty evening of October 1, 1886. "I rode to the natatorium about dark where the wheelmen had already begun to congregate and it was interesting to witness the transformations in their appearance. One after another came hurriedly in, wearing his ordinary clothes, and disappeared in the numerous dressing rooms in the building. Very soon out would come an immense green frog nearly six feet high, waling on his hind legs, then came a gorilla…soon after a great white rooster came strutting about. Then appeared the devil in red tights…closely following him was 'Cupid' in white tights with nothing to keep him warm but a pair of tiny wings and an eyeglass. Cupid is better known to Hartford wheelmen as George W. Baker, who made the wonderful ride from St. Louis to Boston last year in nineteen and one-half days….The machines were variously and tastefully trimmed with different colored paper and hung with Chinese lanterns. One machine, or rather three bicycles fastened together and supporting a sort of canopy was festooned with nearly a hundred lanterns." (Hartford Evening Post, October 13, 1886) Thayer arrived back in Connecticut in November, having covered 4236 miles by bicycle and 7000 miles by train. He was employed by the Hartford Evening Post and his weekly articles about the trip that had been published by the paper were incorporated into the book, Pedal and Path Across the Continent that was published in 1887. He and two companions made a 2,600-mile bicycle tour of Great Britain, France, Germany, and Switzerland during the fall of 1888 and the spring of 1889. The Bicycling World correspondent commented (May 18, 1888), "We wish we could join that party. Mr. Thayer is just the sort of a man we should like to tour with." About a decade later Pvt. Thayer served in Company K of the Connecticut Volunteer Infantry during the Spanish-American war. Mr. Thayer died in 1928.

Theron Gray Charles (w2686) Until recently little information was available on Gray. It is now known, however, that he was born in the farm hamlet of East Springfield, New York, located about 50 miles west of Albany on the Western Turnpike. Members of the Gray family were prosperous farmers who had been in the Cooperstown region since shortly after the Revolution. In 1858 a Daniel Gray married Dorothy Springer and they became the parents of three sons: Martin born in 1861, Charles Theron (later called Theron or C. T. Gray) born in 1863, and George born in 1870. It is not known if Martin was a cyclist, but Theron was www.museumoftravel.org 153 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org riding a Columbia by the mid 1880s and George had a 52" Victor by the end of that decade. Theron may have been a member of the Pioneer Bicycle Club in Cooperstown that was 10 miles south or he may have gravitated to the wheelmen circle found in Herkimer that was 20 miles north. He probably knew riders in both communities. He left East Springfield in late May 1887 and went to New York City where his transcontinental ride began on June 1. He proceeded to Boston, perhaps in recognition that Stevens had ended his ride in that city. He then left for Chicago and he must have made considerable use of the train for he arrived in Porkopolis on June 8th. A postcard mailed home to his grandmother Springer on that date read, "Hello E.S, I'm all right. Do not hear from you, hope you are all well and taking your rations…It looks pleasant this morn, quite warm. Was riding some yesterday in the parks. Cyclometer showed 40 miles. NN (Hadley) and I are going out for a trip today, going to run out of the city. Nellis hasn't arrived yet. (?) have probably held him back. Wishing you all good health and luck. I am yours, Theron." This was an interesting message for it indicates that Theron had met Mr. Hadley when he had ridden through the Mohawk Valley on a trip from Vermont to Chicago. It also suggests that Gray had probably hurried to Chicago to meet George Nellis so that they could discuss the possibility of riding together. It isn't clear why this matter wasn't worked out well in advance or why Gray didn't leave Herkimer with Nellis on May 24th. The two men did meet in Chicago on June 11th and they rode out of the City together on June 13th. They soon separated, however, for Nellis wanted to travel at a fast pace to establish a record time and Gray was interested in a more leisurely sightseeing trip. Gray followed the normal route through Iowa and into Nebraska where he began to bear southwest toward Kansas. He mailed another postcard, dated June 29, from South Bend, Nebraska, which said, "Arrived here at 6. Started from Omaha at 9 - only 35 miles today. Bound for Lincoln, Red Cloud, Hoxie, or Kenneth, Kansas. Crossed the Platte river bridge mile long. Feel better out of city, roads not very good today. Write me at Hoxie, Sheridan County, Kansas. Am feeling good, eat much. Theron." It is nice to imagine that young Willa Cather may have looked out of the window of her Red Cloud home and watched Theron ride past. Gray passed through a corner of Kansas and entered Colorado so that he could visit Pike's Peak, Denver, and Hot Springs. He then traveled northwest to reach the Union Pacific line in Wyoming Territory. A card was mailed home from Rock Springs, Wyoming Territory that indicated he was well and thinking of home, "would like to be there now to go to Cromhorn with you." (The Crumhorn Mountain House was a small resort in the hills of Otsego County) He followed the tradition of previous wheelmen by making a detour from the railroad at Ogden to visit Salt Lake City where he spent a few days investigating the Mormons. Gray and other wheelmen disliked crossing Nevada. According to the San Francisco Evening Bulletin of October 14, 1887, he, "found the worst roads met with on the trip, the sand in many places being so deep that for miles at a time he was obliged to dismount and push the bicycle before him." His September 20 postcard from Lovelocks, Nevada said, "Here I am, been working half an hour to get cleaned up. Managed to get some of the dust off. Tis very dusty traveling on these roads. No rain since spring." Gray followed the Central Pacific route through the Sierras and had an uneventful trip through California to arrive in San Francisco. The newspaper article cited above stated, "On October 11th he arrived in this city, and after resting for a day or two, made a trip to the Big Trees, proceeded by boat and rail to Milton, and there taking to his bicycle. On his return he rode as far as Stockton, and then took the boat back to the city." He then went south to Glendora, west of Los Angles near the San Gabriel Valley, to visit a friend or relative named Frank. The two young men rode bicycles and visited the local fruit groves. Gray soon departed, however, on the Southern Pacific Railroad for New Orleans. His last surviving postcard was mailed from a train stop at Winslow, Arizona. "Dear Friends, 23 minutes for supper. Rode all day. This fore noon thru canyons, rocks, timber. At about 2 PM emerged out again in the desert plain. Has been cloudy most all day. Have lots of time for meditation. Get birds eye of country as go skipping along. Am over thousand miles from San Francisco. Expect to be in Orleans Friday and maybe Thursday. Yours with love, Theron." Gray was back in East Springfield by the end of October 1887. He married the next year and owned a fine farm. A daughter Mabel was born in 1890 and a son Harold arrived in 1893. An old damaged photograph from 1891 shows Gray resting against a tree in front of his handsome home holding Mabel. His wife Ella is standing nearby and appears to be holding a pie. Leaning against a wall in the corner of the photo is another object of pride, his high wheel bicycle. Gray died in 1931. www.museumoftravel.org 154 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

Thompson Frederick Diodati (w2691) Mr. Thompson left New York for Chicago on October 14th, 1891, and returned to that city on May 18th in the following year. This handsome volume records by pen and pencil what he saw and thought of lands, seas, men, and cities during that time. He began by going across the Continent to Victoria, British Columbia ; went thence to Vancouver, and from Vancouver sailed to Japan. Japan seems to have exercised on him its customary fascination. China did not please him as much. (Why, we may ask, the very hideous picture of "After the Execu- tion " ?) India occupied, of course, some time,— including the stay in Ceylon (where he saw Arabi Pasha), more than a fifth of the time given to the whole of his globe-trotting ; Egypt, Pales- tine, and Europe followed, with ten days in this country. There is nothing remarkable about Mr. Thompson's experiences and opinions ; but the volume in which he has recorded them is excel- lently got up. (We believe that the statement on p. 136 about the behaviour of the Indian rebels to their prisoners is not correct.) The Spectator, 02.06.1894

Tipper Alfred Henry (w2700) Alfred Henry Tipper (1867-1944), cyclist and showman, was born on 12 July 1867 at Sale, Victoria, second son of Thomas Tipper, a grocer from England, and his Irish-born wife Catherine, née Chadwick. Alfred claimed to have been abandoned by his parents at the age of 2 and brought up as a ward of the state. In his youth he worked on a dairy farm and also acquired a considerable knowledge of mechanics. He took up competitive cycling in the 1880s, during the early stages of the boom in that sport. Following the trend for undertaking long distances, Tipper rode from Sydney to Melbourne in 1896, carrying a 70-lb. (32 kg) swag. He built an enduring career by combining cycling with showmanship and mechanical ingenuity. In 1904-24 he produced a series of miniature bicycles, ranging from 4½ ins (11 cm) to 10 ins (25 cm) in height. In 1908 he set out to work and ride his way around the world. He began his journey with just one penny in his pocket and returned, after six years and 85,000 miles (136,794 km), with four shillings and sixpence. While in Britain and the United States of America, he perfected his 'singing and comedy cycling act' which sustained him for years to come in his travels around Australia. By the 1930s Tipper was part-owner of a bicycle shop at Richmond, Melbourne. He lived in a horse- drawn caravan, constructed from the body of an old Ford motorcar. Known as 'Professor' Tipper, he cultivated a flowing white beard and advocated simple diet and 'rational dress'. His 6 ft 3 ins (191 cm) frame remained supple in his seventies, and he often wore only a thin shirt and 'little short pants'. The 'professor's' gift for publicity was undimmed. In summer months he toured with a selection of his seventy bicycles, performing trick cycling and teaching children to ride. He was presumably the first person to ride a five-inch (13 cm) bicycle while singing Highlands and Lowlands. Tipper produced postcards documenting his achievements and worked at developing a pedal-powered aeroplane. He died on 2 April 1944 in Royal Melbourne Hospital and was buried in Fawkner cemetery. His death certificate stated that he was married, but when, where and to whom remain unknown. The sale of his effects realized £4 5s. His possessions included five works of art—signed 'H. D.' but possibly www.museumoftravel.org 156 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org painted by him—which were later displayed in the window of a bicycle shop in the city. The paintings, showing Tipper and his bicycles set against backdrops of Australian towns and countryside, caught the eye of Albert Tucker, and featured on the cover of Angry Penguins in December 1944. Tucker acclaimed the works as those of a 'natural artist', possessing a 'startling sense of life expressed through an unfaltering sense of form, pattern, texture and color'. He asserted that 'problems of style and technique' mattered little for the 'primitive' painter; 'the sustained intensity of his vision' solved them for him. http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/tipper-alfred-henry-11866

Train George Francis (w2713) George Francis Train (1829-1904), merchant and entrepreneur, was born on 24 March 1829 at Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America, son of Oliver Train and his wife Maria, née Pickering. His parents and three sisters died in a yellow fever epidemic in New Orleans in 1833 and he was raised in Waltham, Massachusetts, by his maternal grandparents, who were staunch Methodists. Train remained a life-long total abstainer from alcohol and tobacco. From the age of 16 he worked in Boston and Liverpool with the White Diamond Line of Enoch Train, his father's cousin, and gained experience of both American and English commerce. On 5 October 1851 he married a Southern belle Wilhelmina Wilkinson Davis; on 23 May 1853 they arrived in Melbourne in the Bavaria. The flamboyant Train was representative in many ways of the scores of American merchants attracted to Australia by the gold rushes. Melbourne partly owes its nineteenth-century reputation for being Americanized to men like him and his partner Ebenezer Caldwell, a respectable New England sea captain. As few left any account of their experiences, the letters that Train wrote to American newspapers are of much value, revealing the refreshingly different reactions of an American republican to Australian conditions. He and Caldwell generated enthusiasm for the Melbourne Chamber of Commerce and the Exchange and continually stressed the need for more public and private enterprise. Train wrote several reports for the chamber; he drafted its motion in favour of the unrestricted entry of Chinese; and with other Americans he promoted a land policy modelled on United States principles. He usually eschewed politics and, despite persistent rumours to the contrary, his eloquent advocacy of the virtues of republicanism was reserved for Independence Day speeches and for his American readers. By putting substantial warehouses at each end of the new railway from Sandridge to Flinders Street, Caldwell, Train & Co. made it easier for passengers of the White Star Line of Liverpool, for which they were agents, to transfer themselves and their luggage from port to city. The partners were prominent in organizing a volunteer fire brigade; they imported clothing, guns, flour, building materials, patent medicines, mining tools, coaches and carts, wagons and buggies. After Caldwell left Melbourne in the Red Jacket in August 1854 the firm, now G. F. Train & Co., continued to make money and traded until 1858. The Argus credited Train's 'energy, spirit and restless activity' with 'stirring up a spirit of emulation' among Victorian merchants and so succeeding in 'vitalising our whole commercial system'. C. S. Ross remembered him in those days as 'full of indomitable energy, faultlessly dressed, always swinging an elegant cane in his hand; his jaunty air, breezy manner, and genial volubility made him a general favorite'. Train's wife returned to Boston in 1854 and gave birth to a daughter. He decided to rejoin her and left Melbourne in early November next year, travelling by way of the Orient and the Middle East. His accounts of the trip were sent to the New York Herald, were published in 1857 with his Australian www.museumoftravel.org 158 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org letters as An American Merchant in Europe, Asia, and Australia … and were so well received that Freeman Hunt of the Merchants' Magazine sent him to Europe to report on economic and social conditions. In 1859 in New York he published Spread-Eagleism, which included speeches he had made at banquets in Melbourne. In the next few years Train established horse-drawn tramways in Birkenhead and London and played an elusive role in the financing of the Atlantic and Great Western Railroad and the Union Pacific in the United States. His noisy support of the American Union harmed his English enterprises. In 1870 he went on a second world trip which he claimed gave Jules Verne the model for Around the World in Eighty Days. Insolvent at 47 and his presidential ambitions unsupported, he turned to lecturing as his main source of income. Train's enthusiastic pursuit of 'causes', ranging from Fenianism to women's suffrage, resulted in several imprisonments in Britain and America. 'Ubiquitous and irrepressible' he toured the world again in 1890 and 1892. His wife, from whom he had lived apart since 1872, predeceased him in 1879. He died in New York on 18 January 1904, two years after publishing My Life in Many States and in Foreign Lands. He was survived by three of his four children. http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/train-george-francis-4745

Transcontinental Race (w2715) Ford Car No.2 is First in long contest Finishes Transcontinental Race at Seattle in Presence of 15'000 Spectators SEATTLE, Wash. June 22.- Amid the cheers of 1,500 persons, who blocked the streets four blocks around the main entrance to the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition to such an extent that it was with difficulty that the racing automobile could force its way through, Ford car No. 2, driven by W. B. Scott, In the transcontinental automobile race, crossed the tape at 12:55:35 o'clock today, winning the Guggenheim trophy cup and $2,000 purse, after having been out 22 days and 55 minutes from New- York. The car was seriously delayed during the last 100 miles of the race by the deep snow in Snoquaimie pass through the Cascade mountains. Driver Scott said that in some places drifts were encountered five feet deep and that the road through the pass was the worst encountered during the entire trip, characterizing the road through New York as the best. Owing to a rumor that was circulated saying a protest would be entered against Ford car No. 2 because it was reported to have dropped a man and afterward picked him up, the award was not made this afternoon. It is understood that the report of a protest is incorrect. The Shawmut car, which entered the Cascade mountains eight hours behind the Ford car No. 2, has not been reported yet. It is expected to finish during the night and claim the second prize of $1,600. The San Francisco call, 24.06.1909

Tschiffely Aimé Félix (w2722) A.F.Tschiffely era nato nel 1895 da un'antica famiglia svizzera dalla quale ricevette un'educazione diventando insegnante. Avventuriero di natura, a vent'anni lasciò la Svizzera per andare ad insegnare in Inghilterra, ma trovò una nuova passione che gli permise di arrotondare il suo stipendio e divenne un buon pugile. Poi andò a Buenos Aires dove si stabilì per continuare ad insegnare nella più importante scuola internazionale inglese, ma trovando ancora tempo, durante le lunghe vacanze, per cercare nuove avventure in groppa ai cavalli esplorando le pampas circostanti. Si fece molti amici tra gli allevatori e gli avventurieri ed apprese parecchio sui cavalli e sui costumi dei gauchos. Nel 1925 all'età di trent'anni decise d'intraprendere un viaggio a cavallo da Buenos Aires a New York. A quel tempo la stampa tutta dichiarò la sua contrarietà pubblicando: "Impossibile! Assurdo! L'uomo deve essere matto!" La prima pubblicazione del libro Tschiffely's Ride risale al 1933 ed il primo editore fu William Heinemann Ltd di Londra. Negli anni trenta il nome di Tschiffely negli Stati Uniti era molto familiare, essendo stato ricevuto dal Presidente Calvin Coolidge ed essendo apparso sulla rivista del National Geographic e questo gli consentì di ricavare dei buoni proventi dalla vendita dei suoi libri divenuti molto popolari. Il libro è il resoconto del suo sbalorditivo viaggio di oltre 16.000 chilometri a cavallo da Buenos Aires a Washington D.C.. Concepì il suo piano e il 24 aprile del 1925 Tschiffely partì con due cavalli nativi dell'Argentina, di razza criolla, Mancha (Macchia) e Gato (Gatto). Si trattava di cavalli selvaggi del Chubut appartenuti al cacicco tehuelche Liempichum (Io Ho Piume) e forniti dal dottor Emilio Solanet dell'estancia El Cardal. Questi erano i diretti discendenti dei primi cavalli spagnoli importati nel 1535 da Don Pedro de Mendoza, fondatore della città di Buenos Aires, (i primi cavalli importati nel Nuovo Mondo). Questi cavalli erano della migliore razza spagnola (a quel tempo la migliore al mondo) che nelle pampas divennero ferali: i baguales. Erano leggendari per la loro robustezza, intelligenza e resistenza. Con caparbia determinazione, il trio attraversò le pampas, scalò le Ande della Bolivia, lottò attraverso gli infuocati deserti di sabbia del Perú. I tre, per poter attraversare l'Ecuador, dovettero nuovamente risalire sulle Ande. Nuotarono nei fiumi infestati da alligatori della Colombia, e si aprirono la loro via tra le fitte giungle di Panama. Attraversarono quindi l'America Centrale, prima il Costarica e poi El Salvador quindi il Guatemala, paesi devastati da anni di guerre. Giunto poi in Messico, e nonostante qui fosse in corso una rivoluzione, il Governo gli assegnò una scorta armata perché potesse attraversare incolume il paese. A Città del Messico fu ricevuto con gli onori che sono riservati solo ai sovrani ed ai capi di stato. Fu festeggiato con banchetti e spettacoli in suo onore che si protrassero per settimane. Fu ricevuto dall'allora presidente del Messico Plutarco Elías Calles Il suo viaggio è poi proseguito fino a giungere a Washington D.C nell'autunno del 1928 con i suoi due fedeli compagni in perfette condizioni, ed accolti infine trionfalmente a New York il 20 settembre del 1928. L'allora sindaco di New York James Walker lo ricevette in municipio e gli fece dono della New York City Medal. A Washington D.C. fu ricevuto alla Casa Bianca dal Presidente Calvin Coolidge. Sempre a Washington fu invitato dalla National Geographic e tenere una relazione all'auditorium e a scrivere un articolo per la loro prestigiosa rivista. A New York fu portato in trionfo in groppa Mancha da Broadway lungo la Quinta Strada fino al Central Park scortato dalla Polizia a cavallo e più tardi i due cavalli furono esposti per dieci giorni al Madison Square Garden per l'International Horse Show. Per gli argentini e gli svizzeri rappresenta un autentico mito. Questa impresa ha reso famosa la razza del cavallo criollo argentino che da quel momento si è espansa e valorizzata in tutto il continente americano e non solo. Il viaggio si svolse in 504 tappe alla media giornaliera di 46,2 chilometri ed il percorso fu di oltre ventiduemila chilometri. Dopo la sua "Cavalcata" Tschiffely divenne un famoso autore di successo ed andò a vivere a Londra dove incontrò e sposò la cantante lirica argentina Violeta Hulme. In questa città scrisse altri libri uno dei quali fu Don Roberto (1937), la biografia di un suo grandissimo amico, Robert Bontine www.museumoftravel.org 160 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

Cunninghame Graham, che era morto nel 1936. Nel 1937 Tschiffely ritornò in Sud America dove intraprese un altro lungo viaggio, questa volta in auto. L'auto fu fornita dalla Ford. Il viaggio si svolse in Patagonia. Ne ricaverà il libro This Way Suthward (1940). In quest'occasione Tschiffely si dedica a descrivere le condizioni del clima, del territorio, dei mutamenti che, inevitabilmente, porta il progresso, e narrando i fatti più interessanti, sebbene poco noti, della conquista di quei difficili territori. Un altro suo libro interessante è The tale of two horses; un racconto per ragazzi in cui la "Cavalcata" viene descritta dai due cavalli Mancha e Gato secondo il loro punto di vista. Questo è un compendio a Tschiffely's Ride, perché già abbastanza voluminoso, e, come dice Cunninghame nella prefazione, adatto anche agli adulti che potrebbero apprendere molte cose interessanti. Fu Tschiffely, infine, che incoraggiò Lucas Bridges, uno dei più grandi esploratori dell'epoca, a scrivere Ultimo confine del mondo e che lo aiutò nella stesura. La prefazione di questo libro è di Tschiffely. Tschiffely morì nel 1954 per complicazioni dopo un piccolo intervento chirurgico. Dopo la morte le sue ceneri furono portate in Argentina e sparse sulle pampas a Luján. Nel museo di Lujan una sezione è dedicata a Tschiffely e ai suoi due cavalli. Dal 1999, su iniziativa della Federazione Nazionale Equestre, in ricordo del loro arrivo trionfale a New York, il 20 settembre in Argentina si commemora El Dia Nacional del Cavallo. Nel 2004 Marianne du Toit, la viaggiatrice sudafricana, rifece il percorso di Tschiffely, anche lei con due criollos, completando il suo viaggio in 21 mesi.Va precisato, però, che durante il suo viaggio un cavallo morì e che il suo itinerario fu diverso dato che attraversò il Brasile ed il Venezuela. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aim%C3%A9_F%C3%A9lix_Tschiffely

Valerian Johannes Piecynski (w2764) The female Indiana Jones! Fascinating images capture the adventures of a 1920s traveller who visited 80 countries... in a Model T Ford Aloha Wanderwell from Winnipeg in Canada has been described as a female Indiana Jones The teenage adventurer toured the world aged 16 after answering an ad for a driver in a French newspaper She went on to travel 380,000 miles over the course of the 1920s and became a global celebrity Nowadays, backpacking around the world has almost become a rite of passage for a certain breed of teenager. But back in the day, the spectacle of a 16-year-old girl touring the globe was enough to turn her into a worldwide celebrity. Aloha Wanderwell from Winnipeg in Canada has been described as a female Indiana Jones after becoming the first woman to drive around the globe, visiting 43 countries in a Ford Model-T in her teens. She went on to travel 380,000 miles over the course of the 1920s, visiting a total of 80 countries. During her travels, she made some of the earliest films of the Bororo people of Brazil, became the first woman to fly the country’s Mato Grosso state and filmed the first flight around the world. www.museumoftravel.org 162 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

Wanderwell, who was born as Idris Galcia Hall, first got a taste for travel as a child when she began reading her British Army reservist father’s collection of boy’s adventure books. In 1922, at the age of 16 and now living in France with her mother and sister following the death of her father in the First World War, she answered a newspaper advert asking for, ‘Brains, Beauty & Breeches – World Tour Offer For Lucky Young Woman… Wanted to join an expedition!’ The advert had been placed in the Riviera edition of the Paris Herald by a man called Captain Walter Wanderwell (real name Valerian Johannes Piecynski), an adventurer, inventor and former sailor who was looking for a French-speaking secretary and driver on his expedition to promote world peace. The captain met Idris in Paris and was so impressed with her sense of adventure that he immediately gave her the stage name ‘Aloha Wanderwell’ and signed her up. The pair embarked on a decade-long trip around the globe just a few weeks later and Aloha quickly became the star of the show. In their first adventure, the duo visited 43 countries on four continents, including the battlefields of France, post-war Germany, Egypt, Palestine, India, East Africa, Indo-China and Siberia, where she was given the title of 'Honorary Colonel' by the Red Army. On a subsequent tour of the US, Aloha and the captain got married and they went on to have two children, Nile and Valri, but the new arrivals didn’t dull their sense of adventure. They released a documentary about their first world tour that made them famous across the western world. They then followed this up with a second tour, which incorporated the Amazon jungles of Brazil, where their plane crashed. After the crash, Aloha befriended the local Bororos tribes and made her second documentary called Flight to the Stone Age Bororos. Unfortunately, Captain Wanderwell was murdered in 1932 in California, but Aloha continued her travels. After marrying the cameraman for the next stages of her adventures, Walter Baker, in the early 1930s, she went on tour the world with him for much of her life, making films and writing about her experiences - and the results are displayed in museums across the world. She passed away in California in 1996 at the age of 90. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/travel_news/article-4048936/The-female-Indiana-Jones-Fascinating- images-capture-adventures-1920s-traveller-visited-80-countries-Model-T-Ford.html

Van Buren Augusta & Adeline (w2733) The sisters descended from Martin Van Buren, the eighth President of the United States. In 1916, 24- year-old Augusta and 22-year-old Adeline Van Buren, or Gussie and Addie as they were known, were in their 20s and active in the national Preparedness Movement. America was about to enter World War I, and the sisters wanted to prove that women could ride as well as men and would be able to serve as military dispatch riders, freeing up men for other tasks.[4] They also hoped to remove one of the primary arguments for denying women the right to vote. For their ride, they dressed in military-style leggings and leather riding breeches, a taboo at that time. They set out from Sheepshead Bay racetrack in Brooklyn, New York on July 4, riding 1,000 cc Indian Power Plus motorcycles equipped with gas headlights. Indians were the high-end motorcycle at the time, selling for $275, and ran Firestone "non-skid" tires. www.museumoftravel.org 163 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

They arrived in Los Angeles on September 8 after having to contend with poor roads, heavy rains and mud, natural barriers like the Rocky Mountains, and social barriers such as the local police who took offence at their choice of men's clothing. During the ride, they were arrested numerous times, not for speeding but for wearing men's clothes. In Colorado, they became the first women to reach the 14,109-foot summit of Pikes Peak by any motor vehicle. Later on, they became lost in the desert 100 miles west of Salt Lake City and were saved by a prospector after their water ran out. They completed their ride by traveling across the border to Tijuana in Mexico. "Beyond question the Van Burens have made one of the most noteworthy trips ever accomplished, chiefly because they have proven that the motorcycle is a universal vehicle."[citation needed] —Paul Derkum, Indian Motorcycle Company Despite succeeding in their trek, the sisters' applications to be military dispatch riders were rejected. Reports in the leading motorcycling magazine of the day praised the bike but not the sisters and described the journey as a "vacation". One newspaper published a degrading article accusing the sisters of using the national preparedness issue as an excellent excuse to escape their roles as housewives and "display their feminine counters in nifty khaki and leather uniforms". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Buren_sisters

Van Meerbeke Frederick E. (w2739) Van Meerbeke is described at a young athlete from the New York City area who, Karl Kron (Ten Thousand Miles on a Bicycle, 1887) believed, was born about 1865. He must have been a dedicated cyclist for, although it was not given press coverage at the time, he is thought to have made a round trip ride between New York and Denver in 1885 (Kron, xcvii). Not wishing to cover much of this route again on a transcontinental ride in 1886, he took a southern route west. He began the ride from the New York City Hall at noon on March 1 on a Columbia ordinary with the hope of reaching San Francisco in 150 days. His ride took him through Philadelphia, Baltimore, Lynchville, Danville, Atlanta, Montgomery, Mobile, New Orleans, Houston, San Antonio, Del Rio, El Paso, Deming, Benson, Tucson, Yuma, Los Angeles, Mojave, and Goshen. He was forced to be ferried or "ride the cars" (take a train) because of floods near Mobile and Yuma and a bicycle breakdown near Del Rio. He arrived in San Francisco about September 9th (Admission Day), having covered more than 4,000 miles in slightly over 190 days. The San Francisco Chronicle of September 11, 1886 reported that, "He had no hair-breath escapes by flood or field beyond having to be ferried across a piece of flooded roadway near Mobile, and getting badly scared in Arizona by sighting a band of Mexicans whom he mistook for Apaches on the warpath. He followed the route of the Southern Pacific Railroad for the most part. During the trip he wore out six pairs of trousers, five pairs of shoes, a couple of coats, and two hats." The Daily Alta California of September 10, 1886 added, "The gentleman looked pretty rough in his old clothes with his knapsack and canteens strapped on, but he was feeling good. He was introduced to the audience (at a bicycle race) who gave him many hearty cheers and much applause. Afterwards in company with Captain O'Callahan and T. L. Hill, the traveler took a jaunt around the course." A bountiful feast followed the track appearance. The Los Angles Express of August 29, 1886 also gave an account of his ride and stated that he was 20 years old and weighed 135 pounds when he began his ride. There are only scattered accounts of his life after his 1886 journey. It was reported that he planned a long two-year return journey with his brother Frank and a friend from New York, C. W. Listman. He probably returned by train since there is no evidence that this trip materialized. The Wheel of August 12, 1887 reported that Van Meerbeke planned to reside in Patterson, New Jersey and work in a silk mill. On June 29, 1888 the New York Times noted that Van Meerbeke had embarked on an extended bicycle tour in Pennsylvania and adjacent areas of New York State. Apparently Van Meerbeke did not want publicity, for other than a few newspaper reports like the ones cited above, there is no known account of his bicycle trips. Karl Kron (p. xcvii) tells us that he sent three letters to Van Meerbeke seeking information about the transcontinental ride, but received no response.

Von Rosen Linde (w2759) Some Practical Advice for Long Distance Riding On Choosing a Horse The horse is the most important on a long ride so I begin with him. In choosing a horse you should look for a sturdy type with strong hooves and tendons, one that has, above all, a long forward and ground covering walk. It is preferable that he be over rather than under seven years old. He should be fearless and used to different stables so that he will eat and drink wherever he is.

On Choosing Equipment Equipment is the second most important consideration. The army has had the most experience in testing what is practical. I have therefore used a cavalry saddle (its bearing surface is larger and the pack has a better resting place), officer’s model and their voylock, a six-folded saddle blanket, having the advantage of always staying soft and that you always have a blanket along, but with the disadvantage that it is very difficult to fold in such a way that there are no uneven parts, which immediately would scald the horse. Because of this, I have used a thick pad during hot weather, cut square, so that the saddle bags would not touch the horse directly, (which would cause immediate chafing) lined with tight canvas so that sweat is easily washed off. I have used an ordinary civilian model bridle, the army issue has attached halter, but I have found it best to have a halter made of soft material to trade off with, otherwise the horse is easily chafed around the ears and so on when wearing the same headgear all the time. The pack, stored in four French Army saddle packets, (2 in front, 2 behind the saddle) have consisted of the following: In one front pocket; brush and curry comb; wraps, blanket surcingle and sponge, plus halter and lead. In the other front pocket; my toilet articles, soap, nail brush, toothbrush, creams, powder, slippers, camera and a few smaller items. Back pocket number 1: pajamas, a change of silk underwear, ditto of French knit ( for riding, when thick underwear is preferable) three pair of stockings, diary, books, maps, writing utensils. Back pocket number 2; shoes, hand bag and two dresses (in winter a thick wool dress that does not wrinkle, plus a lighter one of muslin cotton; summer time a silk dress with a flower pattern that does not show wrinkles, all in as simple a cut and using as little material as possible). You have to consider that each item, no matter how small, still weighs something.

Pack, saddle and blanket weigh 23 ½ kilos (52 pounds) and with my own weight of 72 kilos (158 pounds) in addition, that is a grand total of 95 ½ kilos (210 pounds) to carry. Besides this I carry a rolled up trench coat behind the saddle.

Care and Feeding of the Horse on the Road The care of the horse has been as follows; When the day’s destination is reached around 4-5 p.m., sometimes earlier, sometimes later, I try to obtain the best stable possible. I prefer those where privately owned cows and horses are kept as opposed to public livery stables. (Cows and horses don’t have the same illnesses). If the horse is to be boarded in an open stall, it should be roomy and well bedded with clean straw. Better yet is to stable the horse in a box stall, where the horse is able to rest properly. Regardless, my first task is to wash out that night's manger with hot saline water. After that I request ten kilos (22 pounds) of oats, which I carefully weigh in a bag. Next, I wash first the hooves and legs, then the saddle area, of the horse with cold water. Then I wrap the legs with wet linen wraps (they stay on until dry) and the horse is blanketed. You have to rub him with straw if he appears too cold. After this he is allowed to drink as much water as he wants. I then give him 3 kilos (6.6 pounds) of oats and as much hay as he will eat, usually around 5 kilos (11 pounds). Many horses will not eat until they have had water and as the main objective is to have the horse consume as much feed as possible, I have always given him water first and never noticed any adverse effects. www.museumoftravel.org 167 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

The feed in every stable has to be thoroughly inspected, making sure that no rats have been in the oats and that the hay does not smell moldy. You must never leave the barn until you have made sure that the horse is eating with good appetite. The horse’s condition is crucial on a long ride and you must monitor his appetite. The more he eats, the better. A few hundred grams of sugar cubes per day (about 20-30 sugar cubes) is very beneficial for a long distance horse. When everything in the barn is done, I go to the hotel and change from top to toe and have a bath, if one is available. At 9 p.m., after my own dinner, I return to the stable, give a light grooming but let the blanket stay on over night and feed another 4 kilos (9 pounds) of oats and let the water bucket stay in the box. Between 5-6 in the morning, the remaining 3 kilos (6.6 pounds) of oats are fed, followed by a thorough grooming and application of hoof conditioner.

A Day on the Road I start between eight and nine in the morning. Wraps applied on the horse's front legs provide support and rest. If that day’s march is not to exceed 60 kilometers (37 miles) I take no other rest than a half hour break at mid-afternoon, during which time I loosen the girth and let Castor graze. It is tempting to take rest during the course of that day's travel at inns along the way. However it is even more advantageous to arrive at that night's proposed rest stop as early as possible. This provides the horse better rest. When choosing roads, I mostly follow the main roads. Shortcuts are often tardy. Castor prefers the hard even road over soft meadows and uneven loose ground. Our pace has been mostly at the walk on a long rein, to allow the propelling power of the hind end to work freely. Castor walks in paso like walk (where you sit as quiet and still as in a chair). He normally covers 10 kilometers (6.25 miles) in 70 minutes. He keeps this pace all day, every day. Trot is occasional, perhaps a total of 10 kilometers (6.25 miles) over a distance of 60 kilometers (37 miles) traveled in a day. We practically never gallop, unless we are nearing a destination where we will have an extended stay. When it isn’t a competition and you have all day, it is smart to save your horse. In spite of this, I seldom dismount to lead my horse. This would only occur in difficult mountain terrain or on very hot days. I often ride 60 kilometers (37 miles) at a stretch without leaving the saddle.

Lodgings and Problems on the Road If the horse feels tired or sore, the best thing is to rest a day. In any case, the horse has to have one rest day a week. Should he become saddle sore, you can cut a hole in the saddle blanket, but the best thing to do is to continue on bare back. If the saddle is properly fitted to the horse, sores should not occur. But it can happen easily enough and is a very sad and troublesome occurrence on a journey like this. The itinerary should be arranged so that there are not too many long segments in a row, but rather every other one. On even ground 40-50 kilometers (25-30 miles) a day makes for a very pleasant ride, while riding more than 60 kilometers (37 miles) starts being a bit long. In mountainous regions, 40 kilometers (25 miles) a day is quite enough. It is a good idea to plan rest days in cities, where you can hope to find a good stable and interesting things to do yourself. It is also a good idea to book a hotel room in advance in a larger city. However in smaller towns it is quite sufficient just to ask someone, preferably a policeman, where to find lodgings for you and your horse. If there is no stable at the hotel, they can easily recommend someplace. You must never forget that the horse is your primary concern. Your needs always come secondary to his. But even if he is stabled in the best of barns, never leave his care to anyone else. I am my own best servant. I attend to the smallest details of a journey in advance myself, down to every strap, buckle and horse shoe.

Financing Equestrian Travel Finally a few words about the economic aspect. Most people believe that this is a tremendously expensive proposition. Of course, this will depend on how you live, but I want to stress the fact that the year has the same number of days, whether you keep a horse here or there. The cost of basic maintenance for Castor and me cost pretty much the same everywhere I travel. Only if I live in a large city does it becomes much more expensive, what with entertainment, car, clothes, dinners and so on. However on a long ride you most often stay in small hostels and you are always moving.

Life on the Road Plus, when you are traveling no one worries about the look of your dress. Secondly, after a 60-70 kilometer (37-44 mile) ride out in the fresh air, you are glad to hit the sack early! You have a wonderfully good tiredness and sleep well anywhere. My meals I divide into: breakfast with coffee, egg, bread and butter at 8 a.m., followed by a cup of chocolate between five and six p.m. after I arrive at my destination. I normally have my dinner at eight p.m.. It consists of an omelet and bread, plus some fruit. Many people cannot understand how you can ride alone. First of all, you are not alone, since you have your horse. Secondly, no two horses walk alike, and thirdly two people seldom think alike. When one wants to stop, the other one wants to continue and so on. Additionally, in foreign countries you never get close to the people if you have a compatriot along, since the two of you will naturally speak your native tongue. This erects a wall put up between “them” and “us”. http://www.thelongridersguild.com/Decision%20Assistance.htm

Wanderwell Aloha (w2893) The female Indiana Jones! Fascinating images capture the adventures of a 1920s traveller who visited 80 countries... in a Model T Ford Aloha Wanderwell from Winnipeg in Canada has been described as a female Indiana Jones The teenage adventurer toured the world aged 16 after answering an ad for a driver in a French newspaper She went on to travel 380,000 miles over the course of the 1920s and became a global celebrity Nowadays, backpacking around the world has almost become a rite of passage for a certain breed of teenager. But back in the day, the spectacle of a 16-year-old girl touring the globe was enough to turn her into a worldwide celebrity. Aloha Wanderwell from Winnipeg in Canada has been described as a female Indiana Jones after becoming the first woman to drive around the globe, visiting 43 countries in a Ford Model-T in her teens. She went on to travel 380,000 miles over the course of the 1920s, visiting a total of 80 countries. During her travels, she made some of the earliest films of the Bororo people of Brazil, became the first woman to fly the country’s Mato Grosso state and filmed the first flight around the world. Wanderwell, who was born as Idris Galcia Hall, first got a taste for travel as a child when she began reading her British Army reservist father’s collection of boy’s adventure books. In 1922, at the age of 16 and now living in France with her mother and sister following the death of her father in the First World War, she answered a newspaper advert asking for, ‘Brains, Beauty & Breeches – World Tour Offer For Lucky Young Woman… Wanted to join an expedition!’ The advert had been placed in the Riviera edition of the Paris Herald by a man called Captain Walter Wanderwell (real name Valerian Johannes Piecynski), an adventurer, inventor and former sailor who was looking for a French-speaking secretary and driver on his expedition to promote world peace. The captain met Idris in Paris and was so impressed with her sense of adventure that he immediately gave her the stage name ‘Aloha Wanderwell’ and signed her up. The pair embarked on a decade-long trip around the globe just a few weeks later and Aloha quickly became the star of the show. In their first adventure, the duo visited 43 countries on four continents, including the battlefields of France, post-war Germany, Egypt, Palestine, India, East Africa, Indo-China and Siberia, where she was given the title of 'Honorary Colonel' by the Red Army. On a subsequent tour of the US, Aloha and the captain got married and they went on to have two children, Nile and Valri, but the new arrivals didn’t dull their sense of adventure. They released a documentary about their first world tour that made them famous across the western world. They then followed this up with a second tour, which incorporated the Amazon jungles of Brazil, where their plane crashed. After the crash, Aloha befriended the local Bororos tribes and made her second documentary called Flight to the Stone Age Bororos. Unfortunately, Captain Wanderwell was murdered in 1932 in California, but Aloha continued her travels. After marrying the cameraman for the next stages of her adventures, Walter Baker, in the early 1930s, she went on tour the world with him for much of her life, making films and writing about her experiences - and the results are displayed in museums across the world. www.museumoftravel.org 170 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

She passed away in California in 1996 at the age of 90. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/travel_news/article-4048936/The-female-Indiana-Jones-Fascinating- images-capture-adventures-1920s-traveller-visited-80-countries-Model-T-Ford.html

Weaver Frank E. (w2769) There are no known attempts at transcontinental rides in 1888 or 1889 and since the day of the standard high wheel bike was coming to an end, the future of such undertakings seemed uncertain. The question was resolved; however, in 1890 when 5'6" tall Frank E. Weaver made a cross-country trip on a 48" Eagle bicycle. Weaver, named Franklin Everett at his birth on November 1, 1870 in New Bedford, Massachusetts, was a prominent member of the New Haven Bicycle Club and he held the club's record for both road and long-distance rides. Many young men like Weaver favored riding an Eagle. Nothing is known about his motives and plans for the ride, but the Eagle Bicycle Company of Stamford, Connecticut may have supported the idea since they used his testimonial about the Eagle after the ride was completed. It is known that following the example of Thayer and Nellis, Mr. Weaver made arrangements to supply periodic reports of his trip to the Bicycling World and L.A.W. Bulletin and the New Haven Palladium. In the following paragraphs citations to these publications will use the abbreviations, BW and PL. As indicated by his route and stops, the ride was made for pleasure. He departed from New Haven on April 21, 1890 and proceeded down the Atlantic coast to Washington, DC. He did some sightseeing and then made a several day long loop rides into northern Virginia to view Civil War battle sites, including one near Winchester where, "about twenty-five years ago my father skipped through here barefooted."(PL May 22) In Virginia he also had an experience mentioned by other wheelmen. "Three natives naively tempted me to try a thirty-foot ford, then enjoyed a hearty laugh when the soft sand in the center made me dismount in water knee deep."(BW May 23)

He returned to the Hagerstown, Maryland area and followed the National Pike through Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois (passing south of Chicago), to St. Louis, Missouri. When passing through the Hoosier State, "A rather fresh young fellow loosened the rope of his bull dog so that when the dog ran in front the rope came across the wheel, causing a dismount…he began untying the dog and threatened to set him on (me). I showed a reliable .38 caliber and told him to get his dog out of the www.museumoftravel.org 171 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org way if he wanted to take him home alive. That settled it." (BW June 13) Over two days were spent seeing the St. Louis sights, including the Anheuser Bush brewery. A St. Louis paper had printed Weaver's route in the region and this aggravated the problem of curiosity and questions faced by all riders. "I am regularly spotted, and the irritating inquisitiveness often causes me to take a breathing spell by the roadside, in preference to the small villages."(BW June 20) As the ride continued across Kansas, Weaver complained of the heat and mirages. "My appearance on a hot day stripped for riding would cause a sensation in an eastern town. A coat in a roll across my back, a broad brimmed misshapen straw hat, Jersey pants rolled above the knees, high shoes unlaced at the top, and Jersey waist unlaced at the neck with a bandanna stuck under my belt. This makes a comfortable if not fastidious garb."(BW July 11) A more dangerous situation encountered by most wheelmen was being caught on a trestle by a train. Weaver was caught in this manner. "Giving my wheel a yank I swung it over the side and hung it to a cross tie, hanging by the saddle, and jumped off the bridge, landing fifteen feet below, fortunately without a scratch. If we had made the jump from the middle, where it was fifty feet, it would have been a cold day."(BW July 4) In Colorado Weaver went to the top of Pike's Peak without his bicycle and examined mining operations in Leadville. The ride continued to Provo and Salt Lake City where he took a dip in the Lake and came to the conclusion that polygamy was on its last legs. He also reports, "Am I tanned?…I heard two young "hopefuls" disputing as to whether I was a white or black….It was evident that the scorching I got on the Kansas plains left a deep imprint."(BW Sep. 12) When Weaver reached the rail center of Ogden, he took a nine-day excursion trip to the country's first national park, Yellowstone. After returning to Ogden he crossed most of Nevada by train and proceeded west from Reno with a stop to see Lake Tahoe. Passing through the Sierras along the railroad route presented no difficulties until flooding was encountered near Sacramento. This problem, in addition to painful boils, led him to travel by train to Oakland. He arrived in San Francisco on August 15, 1890 and was reunited with a long absent brother. He was also joined by prominent Boston wheelmen W. S. Doane, who accompanied him on the return trip by ship and Isthmus train as had been done by Nellis (Doane had ridden an Apollo from Denver to Boston in 1888). The newspaper accounts of the journey are well written and they contain the best known information on the cost of such an undertaking. Weaver gives cost data in almost every article and the average weekly expenditure was about $15 or $255 for the 17-week journey. These amounts include clothing repair and replacement and the cost of any train travel, but they do not include the cost of the return voyage. In 2001 it would require $4826 to purchase what cost $255 in 1890. Upon return to the Waterbury, Connecticut area, he married Sara Reed Stowe in 1893 and the couple had three sons and one daughter. Weaver became Vice President of the American Brass Company in Waterbury, Connecticut. His grandson, Alan Weaver, remembers being told of the adventure on the trestle and encounters with non-hostile Indians. He also recalls that his grandfather, although somewhat reclusive in his later years, would walk several miles to bring him rock candy. Unfortunately Frank Weaver's smoking led to a fire that destroyed the journals of his ride. Mr. Weaver died in 1954.

Webb Matthew (w2770) In 1873, Webb was serving as captain of the steamship Emerald when he read an account of the failed attempt by J. B. Johnson to swim the English Channel. He became inspired to try himself, and left his job to begin training, first at Lambeth Baths, then in the cold waters of the Thames, the English www.museumoftravel.org 172 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

Channel and Hollingworth Lake. His early training was backed by Fred Beckwith who was the "Professor" at Lambeth Baths. Beckwith organised a spectacle by showing Webb swimming miles in the River Thames. Webb completed ‘nearly six miles’, but the poor public interest meant that Beckwith lost money. As a result Webb took another manager. On 12 August 1875, he made his first cross-Channel swimming attempt, but strong winds and poor sea conditions forced him to abandon the swim. On 24 August, he began a second swim by diving in from the Admiralty Pier at Dover. Backed by three escort boats and smeared in porpoise oil, he set off into the ebb tide at a steady breaststroke. Despite stings from jellyfish and strong currents off Cap Gris Nez which prevented him from reaching the shore for five hours, finally, after 21 hours and 45 minutes, he landed near Calais—the first successful cross-channel swim. His zig-zag course across the Channel was over 39 miles (64 km) long. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_Webb

Weston Edward Payson (w6) Mary Boyle O'Reilly hikes one day with Edward P. Weston on his 1,500 mile trip Facts about Weston's walk He is walking from New York to Minneapolis, a distance of 1,446 miles. He expects to make it in 60 day. He is 75 years old and has covered 100.000 miles in long-distance walk in his lifetime. His greatest walk was in 1906, when he hiked clear across the American continent. Upon completion of his present walk Weston will lay the cornerstone of the new clubhouse of the Minneapolis Athletic club. By Mary Boyle O'Reilly "They tell me I am 75 years old, but I don't feel it!" Edward Payson Weston, the father of long- distance walking, laughed as we were parting on the outskirts of New York, to where I had accompanied him. "I begin this hike," he added, without training, but pride, principle and pluck will carry me through. And so, until 'Friday at Callicoon adieu." Friday at Callicoon proved hot - HOT! The dusty, sun-baked road from Shoholo was shadeless. "Nary a tree to cover my unprotected head!" groaned Weston, the Walkist. He was resting for the moment on the hotel porch, his precious feet carefully extended on a chair. "Time's up!" called some one from within. Another moment he and I were off for a full day's tramp together the center of a friendly, mildly excited crowd! Callicoon had turned out en masse. Every man and woman not nailed to a bed or a cookstove was there. And as for children! Cheerful little girls romped along at his canehand and a neat file of boys sang as they followed the little man in khaki and leather putties until a wobbly sign post marked a boundary, and the cheering, breathless children were left behind. Chipper as a boy of twenty, Weston strode forward with the springy step that so easily negotiates from thirty to sixty miles a day, according to the roadway. Wiry, muscular -one hand behind his back- he walked with a light steady pace, covering four and a half miles an hour. Knees bent, body forward, exerting a minimum of energy, the "Old Ped" who has covered 100,000 miles in forty years does not lift his feet high, but progresses with an odd shuffling step taught in the French army. "Where did I get my remarkable endurance?" repeated the grizzled athlete. "Why, where most men get their best qualities -from my mother, who had as great a heart in her bosom as any woman who ever lived. It is for her sake that I never walk on Sunday. I promised her that I would not. www.museumoftravel.org 173 Virtual museum of travel and tourism museumoftravel.org Museo virtuale del viaggio e del turismo museodelviaggio.org Musée virtuel du voyage et du tourisme museeduvoyage.org Virtuelles Museum über Reisen und Tourismus museumoftravel.org

"A scrub woman started me walking, though! She had me discharged from my job as office boy and walked me out so fast that it got to be a habit. "In New York and other big cities the average man walks a mile a day and he looks it! If I could induce worried and brain-weary men to walk more I should feel that I had averted more trouble than any man in the world. For instance, there would be no suicide if people walked enough nor other misery, for health means happiness. "I walk to keep well," continued the white-haired septuagenarian, switching his "game leg" with his cane to stimulate circulation. "When you have led a careful life, age does not count. When I started to walk the hundred miles from Philadelphia to Manhattan the doctors said, 'Don't think of it. Don't try it. You are out of it.' " 'Out of what?' I asked. " 'Out of everything,' they said. You are too old, If you try to do that walk, your circulation will stop." 'Oh, will it?' said I. 'Well, we'll see.' And off I went. It was a mere matter of making up my mind and sticking to it. My circulation did not stop! "More people die from under-exercise than from over-exercise. We are a non-walking nation, more's the pity. But it costs less fatigue and is less harmful to walk 100 miles in 24 hours than to run 100 yards in ten seconds. "A brief stroll, say two or three miles, EVERY DAY, a little watchfulness in the simple things of life and some natural physical ability -that is all the preparation necessary for long-distance walking. Training is artificial and so harmful. "The care of the feet is my chief concern. But blisters are discouraged by salt water, stiff muscles are rubbed flexible with oil -and there you are. "The doctors tell me I have a wonderful heart, a wonderful digestion and wonderful muscles. Well, I keep in good humor, sleep five hours a night and eat like a Christian -ONE SOLID MEAL A DAY. "Never taste liquor nor never smoke a cigar. As a tonic walking beats whisky. And the use of tobacco is a drug habit." A farmer perched high on his creaking hay-wain called out jovially to Weston; the engineer of a click- clacking freight saluted the cross-country trotter with siren blasts; three "weary willies" cheered feebly as they watched the vigorous old man; a country woman came diffidently through a lilac-shaded gate to offer a cup of steaming tea into which she had dropped a raw egg. "You asked my mother for this when you came by forty years ago," she said, shyly. The kindness put new life into the aged athlete. A saving breeze made him spry once more. ''It beats all how they remember," said Weston, packing a handful of chopped ice under his sun-burned hat. The tireless legs strode onward to the last cross-road. "Wait a minute. How do I look?" Want to go into town looking fairly respectable, you know" confessed Weston, unexpectedly producing a slender clothes brush. At the town-line, with self-importance, the town constable fell into step with the unflagging Weston stride. "Two thousand steps to a mile -four miles to an hour- fifteen hundred miles from New York to Minneapolis," chanted a group of school children as they caught up to him. Through the gathering throng he strode, bowing right and left to the growing cheer of "Rah! Rah! Rah! Weston! The day book, Chicago, 10 giugno 1913

Wingo Plennie L. (w2790) Plennie Lawrence Wingo (January 24, 1895 – October 2, 1993) walked backwards from Santa Monica, California to Istanbul, Turkey (about 13,000 km/8,000 miles) from April 15, 1931 to October 24, 1932 at the age of 36. He documented his voyage in the book Around the world backwards. "Plennie L. Wingo, a man walking around the world backwards, stopped in St. James long enough to get some new toe taps for his shoes. This was the 4th pair he had wore out. He started from Fort Worth, Texas, April 15th, and has been walking ever since. He wears periscopic eyeglasses, fastened over his ears like regular spectacles, which enables him to see where he is walking. He will continue on 66 to St. Louis then on Highway 40 to New York where he will secure passage to Europe. Wingo expects to complete the trip in about four years. He depends entirely on the sale of postcards for his expenses.[3] He averages about 20 miles per day." PL Wingo is mentioned (although not by name) in Robert Edison Fulton's One Man Caravan, his account of motorcycling around the world, while in Greece. He writes: "The figure of a man appeared. From his shoulder projected a bracket supporting a mirror. The sun intermittently reflected in his joggling glass. There was a sign on the man's back. As I approached, the letters grew enormous: 'Look Out! Look Out! Walking around the world backward!" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plennie_L._Wingo

Tramping and Camping by the Walking Woolfs. The unique experience of Mr. and Mrs. Dwight H. Woolf, the champion Long Distance Walkers, has awakened general interest through- out the United States. In 1909, Mr. Woolf's doctor informed him that he would have to get out in the open and stay there, or he would die. He weighed only 107 pounds, including clothes, and was growing weaker daily. Yet he hesitated about giving up his business as a music publisher — his life work; and it seemed a little short of madness to forego all the luxuries — the so-called "comforts"— of civilization. But Mrs. Woolf, who was a brave, sensible woman, thoroughly devoted to her husband's interests, agreed with the physician and suggested a walk to the Ozark Mountains. That was the beginning of a most remarkable series of trips through Missouri, Kansas, Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and up through the north Atlantic States to New York and Boston, then home to Kansas City — in the aggregate, a journey of about 10,300 miles. Yet, wherever the couple went there was really but one destination — health. Mr. Woolf gained strength and, not long after starting, was able to make twenty-five or thirty miles in a day. Clad in neat khaki uniforms, he and his wife — now the leading woman pedestrian of the world — marched from city to city, accompanied by Dolly and Don, their faithful horse and dog. The group was often surrounded by cheering crowds, or met by newspaper reporters and escorted with honor by delegations of police into the presence of mayors and other officials, who received the travelers cordially. But the "Walking Woolfs" gained something far more valuable than honor or fame; and their advice to others who have suffered from the effects of sedentary work is: "When you get into a rut walk out of it." He who draws close to nature is rewarded in many ways, not the least of which is perfect health. The object of this book is to preach the doctrine of exercise and fresh air.

In parallel with his studies, he has also acquired a lot of working experience in the areas of culture, environment and information technology. Since 2005, he has worked as scientific advisor to the Department of Education, Culture and Sport (DECS). In 2013 he made a major contribution to the launch of a new process of cultural governance entitled Samara – il patrimonio culturale del Cantone Ticino, the purpose of which is to promote the cultural and scientific heritage of the region. Two years later his book focusing on management and enhancement of the image assets of the Centro di dialettologia e di etnografia was published by the Swiss Academy of Humanities and Social Sciences. The following year, he was a member of the steering committee of the conference Digitalizza la Cultura. In 2017 he has obtained a Certificate in Management and Leadership for Archival, Library and Information Science at the University of Bern.

If you travel from choice and not from necessity, you are as glad to be on the road again as you were to rest a day, for to the born traveler there is nothing quite so satisfactory as motion. When the train moves out of the depot or the steamer leaves her wharf, then is such a person truly happy.

Se viaggi per scelta e non per necessità, sei contento di essere di nuovo sulla strada, proprio come lo saresti se ti fermassi a riposare per una giornata, perché per il viaggiatore nato non c’è niente di più soddisfacente del movimento. Quando il treno esce dalla stazione o il piroscafo lascia il molo, allora tale persona è veramente felice.
