Synopsis

This book follows the true story of a young Englishman who, in 1852, set out to find his fortune in the untamed lands of America. The author provides a vivid, firsthand account of the culture clash that ensued between the experienced young traveler and the self-reliant farmers and frontiersmen of the time. The book brilliantly explores the vast differences between the refined European society and the rough-and-ready lifestyle of the American frontier during a time of great political turmoil in the lead-up to the Civil War.
