Summary: "A Journey of a Jayhawker" by W. Y. Morgan is a travel memoir written in the early 20th century. The narrative chronicles the author's adventurous journey through Europe, beginning with his departure from Kansas, his excitement about traversing the Atlantic, and his experiences in various countries, including Ireland, France, and Italy. This work reflects on the author's observations, cultural experiences, and contemplations about the places he visits and the people he encounters, often injecting humor and personal insights. The opening of the memoir sets the stage for the author's journey as he prepares to embark on his European adventure. He expresses both the exhilaration and anxiety that come with traveling abroad, detailing his preparation and the conflicting advice he receives from friends and fellow travelers. He humorously describes his thoughts on packing, the challenges of managing clothing for various climates, and the emotional complexity of departing from his homeland. As he boards the steamship Arabic, he begins to explore his feelings of homesickness and curiosity about the unknown world ahead, all while grappling with the comedic reality of modern ocean travel compared to the romanticism often portrayed in literature.
