About this ebook
Complete and unabridged, with 60 full-page plates by John Constable, Vilhelm Arnesen and Christian Blache. An English girl of good family and no money crosses to America to see how the Americans live, and reports back in letters.

This edition is bound with a gallery of 60 plates of painting, among them works by John Constable, Charles Hoguet and Peder Balke, ranging from Hampstead Heath to coastal and maritime scenes.
