Publisher's Synopsis

North America V. I is a book written by Anthony Trollope, a renowned British author. The book is a travelogue that chronicles Trollope's journey through the United States and Canada in the mid-19th century. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific location or event. Trollope's observations and commentary on the social, political, and cultural aspects of North America during his travels are insightful and thought-provoking. He offers a unique perspective on the American Civil War, which was raging at the time of his visit. The book also delves into Trollope's personal experiences during his travels, including his encounters with various people and his impressions of the landscapes and cities he visited. Overall, North America V. I is an engaging and informative read that provides a glimpse into the history and culture of North America during the mid-19th century.It must be understood that Baltimore is the commercial capital of Maryland, whereas Annapolis is the seat of government and the legislature--or is, in other terms, the political capital. Baltimore is a city containing 230,000 inhabitants, and is considered to have as strong and perhaps as violent a mob as any city in the Union. Of the above number 30,000 are negroes and 2000 are slaves.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
