Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Impressions in America It has been my habit to inscribe my books to some friend or friends; but in this instance I am bewildered by the number of American friends, to each. Of whom, with almost equal propriety, I might offer such small tribute of gratitude as the dedication of a book can imply. I should be very unwilling to be thought mindful of the kindness of only him, or her, or them, whose names appeared in such an inscription. So that I feel it better to dedicate this record of innumerable acts of kindness and hospitality to each and all of those by whom they were shown.

Download or read book Over Here written by Hector MacQuarrie and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Over Here: Impressions of America During a year spent largely in Pennsylvania, with occasional visits to other states, I have found little to criticise, but rather much to admire, much indeed to love. America now means a great deal to me, since it contains so many people that I have learnt to care for, so I want to let my cousins as well as my own countrymen know my thoughts. From the day that I landed in New York until the present moment, I have been treated with a kindliness that surpasses anything I thought possible in this world. I have been able to see, I hope, where misunderstanding has arisen, and, being a Highland Scotchman, I am able to express my feelings. I have written more about persons than about places. Sometimes I laugh a little, but never unkindly; and I do this because I realize that American people rather appreciate a joke even at their own expense. Often I have heard, over here, that it is impossible for an Englishman to see a good joke. A man told me once that the Kaiser was disguising his submarines as jests, with an obvious design. The idea was interesting to me, because if there is one thing that we Britons pride ourselves upon, it is our sense of humour. Of course, the explanation is obvious.

New feelings have been sweeping America in the past two years, and they are feelings which must leave their effect on people all over the world for a long time to come. No one can doubt that one way or another they will be of towering importance to Britain and the British people. As an English man resident in America during this period I have touched various sides of life and have formed feel ings about the American people in what is probably an historic phase of their development as a nation. The sketches that follow will reveal to Americans the angle of an ordinary Englishman, and to my own people will give perhaps a measure of information.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Across the Ferry: First Impressions of America and Its People Stepping on board the steamer at Liverpool, a familiar voice greeted me with the words, "Are you going across the ferry?" My friend, the representative of a London business firm, going often to and fro, thought as little of the transatlantic voyage as of crossing from Dover to Calais. The phrase sounded strange at the time, and it came to remembrance long afterwards, when seeking some short title under which to publish in separate form a series of papers, which had appeared in the Leisure Hour, headed "First Impressions of America and its People."
