Description
Preface: In one respect, this book is a parallel to Franklin?s well?known apologue of the hatter and his sign. It was commenced with a sole view of exhibit the present state of society in the United States, through the agency, in part, of a set of characters with different peculiarties, who had freshly arrived from Europe, and to whom the distinctive features of the country would be apt to present themselves with greater force, than to those who had never lived beyond the influence of the things portrayed. By the original plan, the work was to open at the threshold of the country, or with the arrival of the travellers at Sandy Hook, from which point the tale was to have been carried regularly forward to its conclusion. But a consultation with others has left little more of this plan than the hatter?s friends left of his sign.
