Publisher's Synopsis
Bits of Travel at Home is a collection of essays written by the American author Helen Hunt Jackson. The book is a travelogue of sorts, but instead of focusing on far-flung destinations, Jackson writes about her travels within the United States. The essays are organized geographically, with each chapter focusing on a different region of the country. Throughout the book, Jackson offers her observations on American culture, history, and society. She writes about the people she meets, the landscapes she sees, and the experiences she has. Some of the topics she covers include the history of the American West, the lives of Native Americans, and the challenges faced by women in the 19th century. Despite being written over 100 years ago, Bits of Travel at Home remains a fascinating and insightful look at America in the late 1800s. Jackson's writing is engaging and vivid, and her observations are still relevant today. The book is a must-read 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.
