Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Kalm's Account of His Visit to England: On His Way to America in 1748
English portion has never before been translated. It is totally unknown in this country, but far transcends in completeness and accuracy of description any work of its age on England known to the present translator. Kalm's work in England was carried on from four centres: Graves end, London, Woodford, and Little Gaddesden. Few subjects have escaped his scrutiny; but whether social or natural, town or country, each has been described With the minute and delicate accuracy of a man of keen observa tion, of refined taste, and of high scientific training.
