Summary

"Their Wedding Journey" by William Dean Howells is a story that looks at love and travel through the eyes of a newly married couple in the late 1800s. Basil and Isabel March begin their married life with a journey that becomes a way to understand their bond. They start their trip full of excitement, thinking about how they met and how happy they are now.
