Omschrijving

Notes On A Journey In America, From The Coast Of Virginia To The Territory Of Illinois (1818) is a travelogue written by Morris Birkbeck, an Englishman who visited America in the early 19th century. The book describes Birkbeck's journey from Virginia to Illinois, where he intended to establish a settlement for English immigrants. Birkbeck's observations of American society, politics, and culture provide a unique perspective on the country during this time period. He comments on the differences between American and European customs, the treatment of slaves, and the role of religion in American life. The book also includes detailed descriptions of the landscape and natural resources of the regions Birkbeck visited, as well as his encounters with Native American tribes. Overall, Notes On A Journey In America offers a fascinating glimpse into early 19th century America through the eyes of an English traveler.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
