Book Description

Excerpt from Letters From the United States, Cuba and Canada, Vol. 1 The writer of these letters did not cross the Atlantic to make a book. She has no wish to enter into controversy, or to be supposed a partisan; but facts can never injure truth, on whichever side it may lie; and statements made with fidelity and accuracy ought to be welcome. To shrink from then perusal is to exclude (in the present case) one means of knowing the condition and probable future of that race for whom a deep interest is felt by the British Public, as well as by the writer of these pages, however different her convictions may be from the opinions commonly maintained. Should anything here written excite bitter feelings, or cause individual pain, the error must not be thought intentional.
