Louisa May Alcott 
Shawl-Straps A Second Series of Aunt Jo’s Scrap-Bag [EPUB ebook] 

There is a sort of fate about writing books of travel which it is impossible to escape. It is vain to declare that no inducement will bribe one to do it, that there is nothing new to tell, and that nobody wants to read the worn-out story: sooner or later the deed is done, and not till the book is safely shelved does peace descend upon the victim of this mysterious doom.
