If you have found it interesting and entertaining, you will find the Britannica a source of inexhaustible interest and enjoyment. This booklet contains sixty-five thousand words; the Britannica over forty-four million. This booklet is a guide to a single trip; the Britannica will be your guide to any trip you want to take to any part of the world. And the best part of it is that you don't have to leave your own fireside to go to the four corners of the globe. With the Britannica you may make your tours as extensive as you like, without effort and without expense. You may visit the great capitals of Europe--London, Paris, Rome,--or the venerable cities of the east--Bokhara, Calcutta, Pekin, to name a few,--or even such out-of-the-way places as Kamchatka and Tahiti. But you will also wish to use the Encyclopaedia Britannica as a guide in your business, your profession or your hobby. In every activity of life, whether it pertains to industry, commerce, science, art, sport or recreation, the Encyclopaedia Britannica will furnish you on demand, at the very moment when you want it, the most readable, entertaining and authoritative information available in English or any other language.
