Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Prince's Visit: A Humorous Description of the Tour of His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, Through the United States of America, in 1860
It will scarcely be necessary to add, that care has been taken to say nothing that can seriously offend any one, or show the smallest want of respect to the distinguished guest of the nation, or to the noblemen and gentlemen who accompanied His Royal Highness to this country. Notes have been appended to explain the quaint expressions current here, but generally unknown abroad, which are put into the mouth of the duke OF newcastle.
