This early work is Charles Dickens' 1890 work, "American notes for general circulation, and Hunted down". Within this volume Dickens attempts to provide evidence for his claims that America has 'influence and tendencies' that should be distrusted, and sets out to explore these facts so that the reader may form an opinion for themselves. This fascinating volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in American history, and constitutes a must-read for fans of Dickens' seminal work. Contents include: "Going Away", "The Passage Out", "Boston", "An American Railroad-Lowell and Its Factory System", "Worcester-The Connecticut River-Hartford-New Haven to New York", "New York", "Philadelphia, and its Solitary Prison", "Washington-The Legislature-And the President's House", etc. Charles John Huffam Dickens (1812-1870) was an English author, widely considered to be the most important novelist of the Victorian era. Many classic books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive.
