Hints to Pilgrims

by Charles S. Brooks

In this collection of 17 short essays, Charles S. Brooks describes funny incidents that can happen to people on holidays or in everyday life. With his usual panache and wit, Brooks brings to life the mishaps and misadventures that can befall even the most well-intentioned traveler or the most ordinary individual.
