From May 1896 to January 1897, my great grandmother, Eleanor Van der Beek traveled to Europe by boat. She kept a scrapbook of her trip that is now in my possession. It's a yellowed and fragile book that smells of dust. The spine has crumbled away, but the pages are still intact. I plan on gradually reading through the letters and notes she kept of her voyage. I'm sure I'll post more materials here as time goes on.
For the moment, here are a couple illustrations from a tourist map she had.
