Travels In The Confederation, 1783-1784 is a historical travelogue written by Johann David Schoepf, a German physician and botanist who travelled through the newly-formed United States of America in the years following the American Revolution. The book provides a detailed account of Schoepf's observations and experiences as he travelled through various regions of the country, including Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, and New York. Schoepf's descriptions of the landscape, people, and culture of the young nation provide a unique perspective on the early years of American history. He also provides insights into the political and economic conditions of the country at the time, including the challenges faced by the new government in establishing its authority and dealing with the aftermath of the war. The book includes detailed descriptions of the plants and animals that Schoepf encountered on his journey, as well as his observations on the medical practices and healthcare systems of the time. Overall, Travels In The Confederation, 1783-1784 offers a fascinating glimpse into the early years of the United States, as seen through the eyes of a European traveller.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
