About this Item

This book is bound in original cloth hardcover, featuring blindstamping on both sides. The gold gilt title on the spine remains visible. Although the spine is intact, there is noticeable wear on the front. The covers have suffered from sun damage and are slightly faded. The binding is secure, with no loose pages, although there is some slight foxing due to the book's age. It was published in 1833. The book's author is described as 'A Citizen of The World'; however, it was written by James Boardman and recounts his experiences and observations while travelling through the Americas in the 19th century. A unique aspect of this book is that it includes a handwritten letter dated 1911 from John Arthur to Robert Gladstone. In this letter, Arthur speculates about the true author of the book, believing it to be James Broadman, a man from Liverpool. He came to this conclusion after supposedly finding an earlier copy of this book, which led him to identify Broadman as the author.
