Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. It is much more than that. It is a matter of new human contacts. It is not of places, but of people. What are regions but the setting for life? The desert, without its Arabs, is but the place that God forgot. To travel, then, is to do, not only to see. To travel best is to be of the sportsmen of the road. To take a chance, and win; to feel the glow of muscles too long unused; to sleep on the ground at night and find it soft; to eat, not because it is time to eat, but because one''s body is clamoring for food; to drink where every stream and river is pure and cold; to get close to the earth and see the stars this is travel.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Mary Roberts Rinehart

Mary Roberts Rinehart nasceu em Pittsburgh, nos Estados Unidos da América, a 12 de agosto de 1876. Formada em enfermagem, cujos conhecimentos técnicos veio a aplicar com mestria nas tramas que concebeu, foi após uma queda de valores na Bolsa americana que Rinehart, vendo-se sem poupanças, começa a escrever as primeiras histórias. O seu livro de estreia, O Mistério da Escada de Caracol (1908), tornou-se um enorme êxito e é ainda hoje considerado um título pioneiro do romance policial. Responsável pelo desfecho «o culpado é o mordomo», que ficaria para sempre associado ao romance de mistério, a autora inovou e amplificou o género, destacando-se ainda com a obra O Homem da Cama n.º 10 (1909), ou a peça O Morcego, que serviria de inspiração à personagem de Batman. Morre em Nova Iorque, a 22 de setembro de 1958.
