Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tells a scathing yet hilarious account of a disgruntled English ex-royal through his travels in the young United States. The author provides a first hand account of his experiences, from crossing the Atlantic on an American packet ship to being thrown in jail for defending himself against his American persecutors. Along the way, he contends with rude republican winds, ill-mannered gulls, uncivil porpoises, and spiteful republican politicians. Through it all, the author humorously maintains his loyalty to the monarchy and his disdain for the 'vile republican' ways of those around him. This is an excellent resource for anyone interested in the social and political differences between the United Kingdom and the United States in the early 19th century. By providing an insightful and entertaining account of the author's experiences, this text elucidates how America was perceived by English loyalists during its early years as an independent nation, and offers a fresh perspective on the development of Anglo-American relations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781330049792_0
