Book Description
Frances Trollope’s Domestic Manners of the Americans, complemented by Auguste Hervieu’s satiric illustrations, took the transatlantic world by storm in 1832. An unusual combination of realism, visual satire, and novelistic detail, Domestic Manners recounts Trollope’s three years as an Englishwoman living in America. Trollope makes the civility of an entire nation the subject of her keen scrutiny, a strategy that would earn her, in the words of the critic Michael Sadleir, “more anger and applause than almost any writer of her day.” Auguste Hervieu’s twenty-four original illustrations, placed and scaled as in the first edition, are included in this Broadview Edition, inviting readers to experience the original relationship of image and text.

Excerpt from Domestic Manners of the Americans, Vol. 2 The magnificent western facade is approached from the city by terraces and steps of holder pro portions than I ever before saw. The elegant eastern front, to which many persons give the pre ference, is on a level with a newly-planted but exceedingly handsome enclosure, which, in a few years, will offer the shade of all the most splendid trees which ourish in the Union, to cool the brows and refresh the spirits of the members. The View from the capitol commands the city and many miles around, and it is itself an object of imposing beauty to the whole country adjoining.

Excerpt from Domestic Manners of the Americans, Vol. 1 Although much has already been written on the great experiment, as it has been called, now making in government, on the other side of the Atlantic, there appears to be still room for many interesting details on the influence which the political system of the country has produced on the principles.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Domestic Manners of the Americans: Or, Characteristic Sketches of the People of the United States Cranium - The climate of the northern and central states is one degree better than that of Nova Scotia, which struck me', in 1814, as being the worst in the world. The heat in summer is that Of Jamaica, in winter that of Russia. On making the American coast, we had four days of denser fog than I ever saw in London. At New York, the weather was fine in November for about a week; at Boston, during my whole residence, I scarcely ever saw the sun at Phila delphia, snow covered the ground from January to March; and at Baltimore and Washington, there was no improvement. The tremendous vicissitudes of temperature necessarily impair the human frame, to which if we add the almost universal marsh exhalations.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Americans at Home, Vol. 2 of 2: Pen-and-Ink Sketches of American Men, Manners and Institutions Notwithstanding the loss to which Emancipation has subjected the Southern people, and the agony of the process by which it was accomplished, I scarcely meta single man or woman who expressed regret that slavery was gone. The South feels like a man who has been subjected against his will to a severe operation - an operation which he thought would kill him, which has terribly prostrated him, from which he is still doubtful if he will completely recover, but which being fairly over, has given him prodigious relief. The anti-slavery agitation turned attention so exclusively to the burdens which the system fixed upon the slave, that few have considered the burdens which it fixed also upon the slaveholder, and the trying position in which latterly it placed him. The ownership of slaves involved a very serious responsibility. This was specially felt by those masters and mistresses who realized that the negroes, so entirely committed to their charge, were beings with souls as well as bodies, for whose moral condition, therefore, they were largely responsible. But even on the man who looked upon his negroes as only so many working animals or cotton-picking machines, slavery imposed burdens from which the employer of free labour is exempt.
