Excerpt from Recollections of Samuel Breck, With Passages From His Note-Books (1771-1862)
His recollections and his diaries together have fur nished the material for this volume. The larger part of it 'is occupied with the Recollections, which is printed without change, except in the omission of some portions of his foreign itinerary, and in such slight verbal corrections as he would himself have made if preparing his manuscript for the press. This portion has also been broken up for convenience into chapters.

Originally written as a series of letters to his family from Europe, recollections is a rich firsthand account of Boston in the time of revolution and beyond.

When the author left his home to finish his education in France, he encountered and recounts conversations with major figures of the enlightenment like Beaumarchais and John Adams. From his youth in the cradle of the American Revolution, to his years abroad studying under the shadow of the French Revolution, Breck reflects on his experiences through the lens of America's founding principles and emerging cultural and political identity.
