About This Book

A travel account of a transcontinental visit to the United States that combines practical observation with personal commentary. The narrator surveys urban centres, railroads, frontier ranching and arid landscapes, and records social manners, press behaviour, currency and climatic differences. He warns prospective emigrants about unscrupulous agents and misleading land promotions, recounts disappointment with promoted California tracts, and highlights certain Western climates as beneficial for pulmonary ailments. The work alternates reportage, cautionary anecdotes, and reflections on American daily life.
