Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The American in England
It was quite otherwise in England; the climate presented itself to him at the most sombre season of the year, when it was his fortune first to visit it, under an aspect of more than usual gloom. He has laboured, moreover, under restraints which did not fetter him in writing on Spain, growing out of the circumstance that his work would be likely to find readers in the country it described. This consideration has hung upon his pen with a nightmare in?uence, and driven him, in a great measure, from the description of that which was most likely to prove of general interest.
