Your United States - Impressions of a First Visit: With an Essay from Arnold Bennett By F. J. Harvey Darton Paperback - 2007

From the publisher

First published in 1912, "Your United States - Impressions of a First Visit" is an interesting account of the author's experiences when visiting the USA for the first in the early twentieth century. Enoch Arnold Bennett (1867-1931) was an English writer. Although he is perhaps best remembered for his popular novels, Bennett also produced work in other areas including the theatre, propaganda, journalism, and film. Contents include: "The First Night", "Streets", "The Capitol and Other Sites", "Some Organizations", "Transit and Hotels", "Sports and the Theatre", "Education and Art", and "Citizens". Offering a fascinating insight into American life at the turn of the twentieth century, this vintage book will appeal to those with an interest in American history and society, and it is not to be missed by fans and collectors of Bennet's influential work. Other notable works by this author include: "Helen with a High Hand" (1910), "The Card" (1911), and "Hilda Lessways" (1911). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an essay from F. J. Harvey Darton's 1915 book, "Arnold Bennett".
