Meer over het boek

In this captivating travelogue, Mrs. Lippincott takes the reader on a journey through the United States in the mid-19th century, offering vivid descriptions of the people, landscapes, and customs she encounters along the way. From bustling cities to wide open prairies, from the banks of the Mississippi to the rugged mountains of the West, her observations are keenly insightful and often humorous. But more than just a travel diary, New Life in New Lands is a portrait of an America in transition, grappling with the challenges of rapid growth and change, and struggling to define its place in the world.
