Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Travels Through the United States of North America: The Country of the Iroquois, and Upper Canada, in the Years 1795, 1796, and 1797; With an Authentic Account of Lower Canada The Duke de la Rochefoucault Liancourt, a man, who, at all times, has been distinguished as one of the most amiable, the most virtuous, and the best informed of the French nobility, has made a journey for philosophical and commercial observation throughout a great part of North America, and has communicated the substance of his observations to the World, in the valuable Narrative which is here presented to the British Public. Although no longer a dependency of the British Empire, the thirteen Provinces of the American Commonwealth are not regarded by Britons as a land of Strangers. The mutual animosities of the war of the American revolution are already extinguished. Britons and Americans now think of each other only as brethren; a kindred decent, a common language, congenial character, a Strong alliance of institutions, arts, and manners, render them to one another reciprocally interesting, perhaps much more than, in similar circumstances, any third nation would be to either.
