Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Marriage in the United States Mr. Carlier, the author of this book, travelled some time in this country, observing our manners and customs, and studying our institutions. Familiar with our language, and recognizing our peculiarities and prejudices, he was enabled to see a great deal of our life not generally or readily got at by foreigners. He has made himself master of our political, religious, and social history, as is proved by the books he has since written, namely, "Slavery in its Relations to the American Union," and "History of the American People: the United States and their Relations with the Indians, from the Foundation of the English Colonies up to the Revolution of 1776." He is now engaged in the preparation of a work on the institutions of the United States. To us, New Englanders especially, that man must seem rather bold who dares attack De Tocqueville´s statements and deductions in his "Democracy in America." Yet, if one will read carefully and weigh without prejudice what Mr. Carlier has written simply on the point of marriage alone, he must needs admit that De Tocqueville´s views can only be reconciled with the truth, if it is granted that what he says of our country shall be considered as applying, in great part or alone, to New England.
