Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Fanny Thimble Cutler´s Journal of a Residence in America: Whilst Performing a Profitable Theatrical Engagement; Beating the Nonsensical Fanny Kemble Journal All Hollow My concience! who´d have thought it; there, it is written, I am Fanny Thimble, and no one else; this is my big toe and as I live, it has grown a crop of corns since I got on board ship. Here is New York, the little Lunnun, by my faith; and it is no other place. Monstrous change! but I must get out of my berth or I will loose my breakfast. As I live there is that gouty old fellow B - peeping through the half shut blinds of my state room door; I wish Pa would catch him there, the good for nothing, worn out, gouty old wretch. Ah, he has taken the hint and vanished. Eat breakfast for the last time on board our good ship Warrior; swallowed six muffins, seven eggs and eight cups of coffee to keep the damp out of my stomach, for it is a real Liverpool day. Cold gray clouds, tipped with rose pink and a slight touch of indigo, hovered over us as we got on board of the steamer which landed us in an hour on the wharf at New York and for the first time 1 soiled my pretty English shoes with Yankee dirt.
