A comprehensive view of America by British politician and historian James Bryce (1838-1922). Published in 1888. A classic of American studies. It describes the political organization and social situation of America at the end of the 19th century very objectively, enlightening the British who had previously viewed American society with contempt. Bryce was a member of the House of Representatives for many years as a member of the Liberal Party, and served as the US ambassador from 1907 to 1913. A complete translation was published by Hitomi Ichitaro in 25 volumes (1889-91) shortly after the publication of the original work. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
