Letters On England V1 (1867)

Letters on England is a book written by Jean Joseph Louis Blanc and first published in 1867. It is a collection of letters written by Blanc during his travels in England in the mid-19th century. The book provides a detailed account of Blanc's observations on English society, culture, politics, and economy. Blanc was a French politician and socialist who was interested in studying the economic and social systems of other countries. His observations on England are therefore informed by his socialist beliefs and his interest in understanding the factors that contributed to England's economic success. The book is divided into several letters, each of which covers a different aspect of English life. Blanc discusses topics such as the English aristocracy, the working class, the education system, the press, and the political system. He also provides detailed descriptions of English cities such as London and Manchester, as well as the countryside. Throughout the book, Blanc is critical of certain aspects of English society, such as the treatment of the working class and the power of the aristocracy. However, he also admires certain aspects of English culture, such as its literature, art, and scientific achievements. Overall, Letters on England provides a unique and insightful perspective on English society in the mid-19th century, and is an important work for anyone interested in the history of England or the development of socialism as a political ideology.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
