The Innocents Abroad -- Volume 01

Excerpt from Autobiography of Friedrich Froebel For the faithfulness of translation we hope our respective nationalities may have stood us in good stead. We would however add that a faithful translation is not a verbal trans lation. The translator should rather strive to write each sentence as the author would have written it in English.
