Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Atlantic and American Notes It affords me much pleasure, in response to a suggestion made by some of my fellow-officers, to give a short sketch of the journey made by the representatives of the London and North Western Railway Company in America during the spring and early summer of last year. Our party consisted of His Grace the Duke of Sutherland; his friends, Sir Henry and Lady Green; Mr. Russell, widely known as "The Times" correspondent in the days of the Crimean War; Mr. Henry Wright; our Directors, The Marquis of Stafford, M.P.; Mr. Bickersteth; Mr. Knowles, M.P.; Mr. Stephen; Mr. George Crosfield; and last, but not least, one who was intimately connected with the whole scheme of the journey, with whom I had many lengthy consultations and communications in perfecting its programme, and whose lamented death has now thrown a dark shadow across our reminiscences, otherwise unclouded - I allude to Mr. Henry Crosfield, our well-known auditor. We left London on Good Friday, April 15th, and stayed for the night in Liverpool. On starting from Liverpool we experienced the usual scene of confusion at the Landing Stage, enhanced by the fact that there were three steamers, besides our own, all starting with the same tide; by one of which a large number of Norwegian emigrants took their departure, and the quay was consequently congested with an unusual quantity of passengers and baggage; after a while we managed to shake ourselves free and find our way to the tender appointed to convey us to the "Gallia," one of the noble steamers of the Cunard Fleet, by which we were to make our outward journey. Our friends said "farewell," the tender left our ship's side, and steadily we steamed out of the Mersey. After some time spent in roaming up and down the vessel, in which everything was strange to us, we settled down and obtained possession of the separate cabins, called "State Rooms," set aside for our use.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Notes: And Pictures From Italy IT is nearly eight years since this book was first published. I present it, unaltered, in the Cheap Edition; and such of my opinions as it expresses, are quite unaltered too. My readers have opportunities of judging for themselves whether the influences and tendencies which I distrust in America, have any existence not in my imagination. They can examine for themselves whether there has been anything in the public career of that country during these past eight years, or whether there is anything in its present position, at home or abroad, which suggests that those influences and tendencies really do exist. As they find the fact, they will judge me. If they discern any evidences of wrong - going in any direction that I have indicated, they will acknow ledge that I had reason in what I wrote. If they discern no such thing, they will consider me altogether mistaken. Prejudiced, I never have been otherwise than in favour of the United States. No visitor can ever have set foot on those shores, with a stronger faith in the Republic than I had, when I landed in America. I purposely abstain from extending these observations to any length. I have nothing to defend, or to explain away. The truth is the truth; and neither childish absurdities, nor unscrupulous contradictions, can make it otherwise. The earth would still move round the sun, though the whole Catholic Church said No. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Transatlantic Indian 1776 1930 written by Kate Flint and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes a fascinating look at the iconic figure of the Native American in the British cultural imagination from the Revolutionary War to the early twentieth century, and examining how Native Americans regarded the British, as well as how they challenged their own cultural image in Britain during this period. Kate Flint shows how the image of the Indian was used in English literature and culture for a host of ideological purposes, and she reveals its crucial role as symbol, cultural myth, and stereotype that helped to define British identity and its attitude toward the colonial world. Through close readings of writers such as Charles Dickens, Elizabeth Gaskell, and D. H. Lawrence, Flint traces how the figure of the Indian was received, represented, and transformed in British fiction and poetry, travelogues, sketches, and journalism, as well as theater, paintings, and cinema. She describes the experiences of the Ojibwa and Ioway who toured Britain with George Catlin in the 1840s; the testimonies of the Indians in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show; and the performances and polemics of the Iroquois poet Pauline Johnson in London. Flint explores transatlantic conceptions of race, the role of gender in writings by and about Indians, and the complex political and economic relationships between Britain and America. The Transatlantic Indian, 1776-1930 argues that native perspectives are essential to our understanding of transatlantic relations in this period and the development of transnational modernity.
Download or read book Visits to America Classic Reprint written by Emily Faithfull and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Visits to America The third point is that the book is not the work of an observer who has made a hurried tour through the country, visited the more conspicuous places designated in the common guide-books, and then presumes to write impressions of the people and country; but it is the conscientious opinion of a woman of matured intelligence, who has seen much of human nature, and has visited America three times before taking up her pen to note her inferences from what has been seen and heard. Each time Miss F aithfull came here, she came with an earnest pur pose to study our society, our women, our industries, that she might learn something of use in her special work. She was each time among us more in the character of the learner than the critic, and it will be seen that her statements from beginning to end are entirely free from any tincture of pedantry or ego tism. She speaks candidly, frankly, awarding cordial approval wherever she has found matters to her lik ing, and expressing as decided dissent or reproof, yet always in kindly terms, regarding matters that she deems it expedient to censure.
