North America Vol. 2


Read by Celine Major

(1 stars; 1 reviews)

Anthony Trollope was one of the most successful, prolific and respected English novelists of the Victorian era. In 1861-1862 he travelled throughout the Canadas and the United States to ascertain firsthand their customs, the various societies, the institutions and politics of this young country. In Volume 2 you will hear his comments and opinions on the Constitution of The United States, the Government and its Financial Position, the Law Courts and Lawyers as well as his feelings towards American Hotels, Literature, the Post Office and of course the Civil War. As in Volume 1 many of you will no doubt disagree with Mr. Trollope's views but still consider it a very interesting glance at mid-19th-century North America. - Summary by Celine Major (13 hr 41 min)

What got into the mind of this great, tolerant man to make him despise the United States?
