Martineau's classic American travel narrative has long been
unavailable. This new abridgment of the original 1838 edition
offers an unsurpassed firsthand view of Jacksonian America. Here
are Martineau's penetrating condemnation of slavery and her
championship of abolition and women's rights; her incisive
portraits of Jackson, Clay, Calhoun, Webster, Garrison, Emerson,
and the Beechers; her critical observations of American schools,
asylums, colleges, and prisons; and more. Historian Daniel Feller,
author of The Jacksonian Promise, introduces the narrative,
identifies the major characters, and provides an index for easy
use.
