Excerpt from America and England: A Study of the United States; Its Relations With Britain; Its Part in the Great War; And Its Future Influence
N the present work a threefold endeavour is made - to afford, first, a succinct (and it may be hoped interesting) description for the general reader of the topography, life and development of the United States, together with its history an account such as perhaps has not been readily accessible in this form; next, to discuss with some frankness Anglo American relations, whose better understanding is undoubtedly a present need and, finally, to arouse interest in a more con structive outlook on life on the part of America and England, which countries have been called to so prominent a place in the world's affairs. The author is aware of omissions, but space forbids extension.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book paints a detailed picture of the US political, economic, and social landscape in the aftermath of the American Civil War. From colonial beginnings to the post-Reconstruction era, the author provides a rich historical backdrop against which he explores America's complex relationship with its former colonial power, England. The book contends that a better understanding and appreciation between the two nations is paramount. Moreover, the author posits that both countries must develop a more constructive outlook on life beyond their past differences to address present global challenges. The author argues that England is the motherland and must always have that position despite the vast range of nationalities which America assimilates. However, he also believes that America is a child of England which has grown up and must be respected to the very end. The author does not shy away from detailing controversial events in Anglo-American history, yet he does so in a way that encourages a deeper understanding of the underlying causes, rather than pointing fingers or assigning blame. By presenting both sides of the story, the book helps readers gain a more nuanced understanding of the historical events that have shaped the relationship between the two countries. Overall, this book offers a fresh perspective on Anglo-American relations, providing valuable insights into the historical, social, and political forces that have shaped their unique bond.
