Domestic Manners of the Americans
Edited with an Introduction and Notes by
Pamela Neville-Sington
Part satire, part masterpiece of nineteenthcentury
travel writing, this perceptive
and humorous book grew from Fanny
Trollope’s ill-fated attempt to escape
growing debts and the oppressively black
moods of her husband by fleeing to
the United States. After two miserable
years she retreated to England, where
she launched her remarkably successful
literary career with this timeless and biting
commentary on a society torn between high
ideals and human frailties.
