Notes:

"First published, 1950."

"A Batsford Book."

"This book is intended rather to supplement than to replace the established guide to Switzerland. It presents the findings of an enthusiast - but an enthusiast of recent date, who cannot rival (and, indeed does not envy) the monomania of those who speak of Switzerland from the memory of forty or fifty years of annual visits."--Preface.

Includes index.
