Out West: A Series Of Letters From Canada And The United States (1866) is a book written by George Tuthill Borrett. The book is a collection of letters that Borrett wrote while traveling through Canada and the United States in the mid-19th century. The letters provide a unique perspective on life in North America during this time period, as Borrett was an Englishman and had a different cultural background than many of the people he encountered. The book is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different aspect of Borrett's journey. He writes about his experiences traveling by boat, train, and horse-drawn carriage, as well as his encounters with Native Americans and settlers in the western United States. He also describes the natural beauty of the landscapes he saw, including the Rocky Mountains and Niagara Falls. Borrett's writing style is engaging and descriptive, and he provides a wealth of information about the places he visited and the people he met. His letters offer a fascinating glimpse into life in North America in the mid-19th century, and the book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in history or travel writing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
