America And The Americans is a book written by Achille Murat in 1851. The book is a comprehensive description of the United States of America and its people, with a particular focus on the social and political aspects of American life. Murat, a French prince and explorer, provides a unique perspective on American society during the mid-19th century. The book is divided into several chapters, each covering a different aspect of American life. The first chapter is an introduction to the country, its history, and its people. The subsequent chapters delve into topics such as the government, the legal system, education, religion, and social customs. Murat also provides insights into American culture and traditions, including its cuisine and entertainment.Throughout the book, Murat offers his opinions and observations on American life, often comparing it to European culture. He praises the country's democratic principles and its emphasis on individual freedom, but also criticizes some aspects of American society, such as its treatment of African Americans and Native Americans.Overall, America And The Americans is a valuable historical document that provides a fascinating glimpse into the United States during the mid-19th century. Murat's unique perspective as a European explorer adds an interesting dimension to the book, making it a must-read for anyone interested in American history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
