Description & Specifications

'Like Shakespeare, Dickens was able to embrace a whole world' John Mortimer

When Charles Dickens decided to travel to America in 1842, he was the most famous person of his time to undertake such a journey, and he embarked on his adventure with intense curiosity. His candid descriptions cover everything from the comically miserable seasickness he experienced to his utter amazement at the sight of Niagara Falls, as he visited hospitals, prisons, and courts. However, Dickens's portrayal of America as a money-run country, built on slavery, with a corrupt press and terrible manners, provoked hostile reactions from both sides of the Atlantic. The American Notes is an enlightening account of a great writer's eye-opening encounter with the New World.
