Excerpt from The West From a Car-Window An Eastern man is apt to cross the continent for the first time with mixed sensations of pride at the size of his coun try, and shame at his ignorance concerning it. He remem bers guiltily how he has told that story of the Englishman who asks the American in London, on hearing be is from New York, if he knows his brother in Omaha, Nebraska. And as the Eastern man finds from the map of his own country that the letters of introduction he has accepted from intelligent friends are addressed to places one and two thousand miles spart, he determines to drop that story about the Englishman, and tell it hereafter at the expense of him self and others nearer home.
