Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Society in America, Vol. 1 of 2 In working according to this method, my princi pal dangers are two. I am in danger of not fully apprehending the principles on which society in the United States is founded; and of erring in the application to these of the facts which came under my notlce. In the last respect, I am utterly hope less of my own accuracy. It is in the highest de gree improbable that my scanty gleanings in the wide field of American society should present a precisely fair sample of the whole. I can only explain that I have spared no pains to discover the truth, in both divisions of my task; and invite cor rection, in all errors of fact. This I earnestly do; holding myself, of course, an equal judge with others on matters of Opinion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The mail roads are still ex tremely bad. I found, in travelling through the Carolinas and Georgia, that the drivers consider themselves entitled to get on by any means they can devise. That nobody helps and nobody hinders them. It was constantly happening that the stage came to a step on the brink of a wide and a deep puddle, extending all across the road. The driver helped himself, without scruple, to as many rails of the nearest fence as might serve to fill up the bot tom Of the hole, or break our descent into it. On Inquiry, I found it was not probable that either road or fence would be mended till both had gone to absolute destruction.

Download or read book White Red Black Vol 1 of 2 written by Francis Pulszky and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from White, Red, Black, Vol. 1 of 2: Sketches of American Society in the United States During the Visit of Their Guests Many books on America have been published in England - earnest and satirical accounts, serious and flippant narratives, caricatures and sketches, birds-eye views and finished pictures. Miss Martineau, Silk Buckingham, George Combe, Alexander Mackay, Sir Charles Lyell, have treated in their valuable works the most different phases of American life. Why, then, another book on a subject so often, and in some quarters so ably treated? The question is easily answered. America is growing rapidly, and changes its aspect unceasingly; a short time gives to the States a different appearance, and a picture, true to-day, no longer bears resemblance after a couple of years. And then the Americans are so closely related to the English, as they speak the same language, and live under the same common law, that some of the tourists have been induced to direct their attention, less to the working of the different institutions, than to insignificant discrepancies on the surface of society. A foreigner, strange to both countries, without previous predilection for, or prejudice against either of them, can perhaps be more impartial in his view of the United States, than the son of the mother country, attached to her in manners and customs. These reasons have induced me to "carry an owl to Athens" by publishing these volumes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
