Review

It's a hugely entertaining and informative read, and the new Oxford World Classics edition has all the extras youd expect from this publisher, including an excellent introduction and notes, and even some of the illustrations from the original 1832 edition. Splendid stuff. ( Harriet Devine, Shiny New Books)

Published in 1832, this feisty journal of a three-year spell in America remains delectably hilarious. ( Christopher Hirst, Independent)

Book Description

Frances Trollope presents an engaging account of her visit to the United States during 1827–1831 in this two-volume travelogue. Published in 1832, it records her often outspoken views on many aspects of nineteenth-century American society. The immediacy of her impressions will arouse the curiosity of readers today.
