An amazing chronicle of the United States, a view through the eyes of an English woman, at the beginning of the XIXth century. Please note: this book has been originally written in 1832. In the interest of preserving the history and the past, the language of the book has not been modified, hence it might contain expressions which might be offensive to today's reader. "The United States of America contain a considerable variety of interesting objects in most branches of natural science, besides much that is new, a good deal that is beautiful, and some things that are wonderful. Nevertheless, as it is the moral and religious condition of the people which, beyond everything else, demands the attention of the philosophical enquirer, the author would consider her work as completely successful, could she but awaken a more general interest on this subject."
