Summary "Foot-prints of Travel; Or, Journeyings in Many Lands" by Maturin M. Ballou is a travelogue written in the late 19th century. This work chronicles the author’s observations and experiences while traversing through various countries and cultures across the globe. The narrative aims not only to entertain readers with engaging accounts of Ballou’s voyages but also to provide informative insights about the diverse lands and peoples he encounters.
