Condition: VeryGood.
"William Cobbett's "A Year's Residence in the United States of America," first published in 1818 and reprinted in 1969, presents a rich tapestry of his experiences in early 19th-century America. The book is organized into three parts: the first discusses the geography and agricultural practices, such as the cultivation of the Ruta Baga; the second explores household expenses, social customs, and political and religious institutions; and the third features a postscript on crop cultivation experiments and addresses misconceptions about Western America for British emigrants. This detailed account offers a unique perspective on American society and agriculture during a transformative period."
