The writer Frances Trollope's Domestic Manners of the Americans,
complemented by Auguste Hervieu's satiric illustrations, took the
transatlantic world by storm in 1832. An unusual combination of
realism, visual satire, and novelistic detail, Domestic Manners
recounts Trollope's two years as an Englishwoman living in America.
Trollope makes the civility of an entire nation the subject of her
keen scrutiny, a strategy which would earn her ""more anger and
applause than almost any writer of her day."" Auguste Hervieu's
twenty-six original illustrations, placed and scaled as in the
first edition, are included in this Broadview Edition, inviting
readers to experience the original relationship of image and text.
