Cover of Frances Trollope: Domestic Manners of the Americans (PDF)

In the early 1800s, an English writer named Frances Trollope spent some time touring the then-very-young country of America with her son Henry, dividing most of her time between Cincinnati and a utopian camp settlement that housed former slaves in Tennessee. Although Frances enjoyed her visit, she was absolutely appalled with what she regarded as Americans’ abhorrent lack of decorum. Domestic Manners of the Americans includes both stirring descriptions of the country’s landscapes and withering excoriations of its residents’ "primitive" manners.
