Almost An Englishman is a novel written by Moses Lewis Scudder Jr. in 1878. The book tells the story of a young American man named Frank who travels to England to study law. While there, he becomes enamored with English culture and begins to adopt many of its customs and habits. He even starts to speak with an English accent and dress like an Englishman. As Frank becomes more and more integrated into English society, he begins to question his own identity and struggles to reconcile his American upbringing with his newfound love for all things English. Along the way, he falls in love with a young English woman named Alice, but their relationship is threatened by cultural differences and societal expectations.Throughout the novel, Scudder explores themes of identity, cultural assimilation, and the tension between tradition and modernity. He also provides a vivid portrait of life in 19th-century England, with its class hierarchies, social norms, and political upheavals.Overall, Almost An Englishman is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a unique perspective on the relationship between America and England during a pivotal moment in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
