Publisher's Synopsis

""America, And The Americans"" is a book written by James Boardman and published in 1833. The book provides a comprehensive overview of American society, culture, and politics during the early 19th century. Boardman, a Scottish writer and traveler, spent several years in the United States and used his experiences to create a detailed portrait of the country and its people. The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of American life. Boardman discusses topics such as the country's geography, economy, and political system, as well as its social customs, religious beliefs, and cultural traditions. He also provides insights into the daily lives of Americans, including their diet, clothing, and leisure activities. Throughout the book, Boardman offers his own observations and opinions on American society. He praises the country's democratic principles and entrepreneurial spirit, but also notes its flaws, such as its treatment of Native Americans and its reliance on slavery. Overall, ""America, And The Americans"" provides a fascinating glimpse into early 19th century America from the perspective of an outsider. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history, culture, and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
