Shaking Hands With England is a book written by Charles Hanson Towne and published in 1919. The book is a collection of essays that reflect on the author's experiences and observations during his travels in England. Towne, an American journalist and poet, writes about his encounters with notable figures such as H.G. Wells, Arthur Conan Doyle, and Winston Churchill. He also describes his visits to historic sites such as Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London. Throughout the book, Towne expresses his admiration for England and its people, describing them as sturdy, honest, and true. He also reflects on the shared cultural heritage between England and the United States, and the importance of maintaining strong ties between the two nations. Shaking Hands With England is a nostalgic and celebratory tribute to a country that Towne clearly holds in high esteem. The book offers a unique perspective on England during a time of great change and transition, making it a valuable historical document as well as an engaging read.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
