Publisher's Synopsis
My Impressions of America is a book written by Margot Asquith, the wife of the British Prime Minister Herbert Asquith, who visited the United States in 1915. The book is a collection of her observations and reflections on American society, politics, culture, and customs during her trip. Asquith's writing is insightful, witty, and sometimes critical, as she shares her impressions of American life, from the grandeur of New York City to the simplicity of rural communities. She also provides a unique perspective on the American political system, commenting on the role of women in politics and the influence of money in elections. My Impressions of America is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of the United States or the experiences of a foreign traveler in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
